A new coin.
The Afghanistan 500 Afghanis 1995 Ankylosaurus silver coin is a rare collector’s piece from the “Prehistoric Animals” series, dedicated to one of the most fascinating dinosaurs in Earth’s history. The obverse displays a detailed scene featuring the Ankylosaurus – a heavily armored herbivorous dinosaur, with a low body, bony plates, spikes, and a distinctive tail club. Surrounding the prehistoric creature are rocky ground elements and small plants, emphasizing its natural environment. The inscription “PREHISTORIC ANIMALS” and the year 1995 complete the composition, while the name Ankylosaurus is boldly written below.
The reverse shows the coat of arms of the Democratic Republic of Afghanistan: a central emblem with a rising sun, star, and wreath of wheat surrounding a book and torch – symbols of knowledge, progress, and national identity. The denomination 500 Afghanis is placed beneath.
Struck in silver with a brilliant Proof Deep Cameo finish, this coin has been graded PR69DCAM by PCGS, ensuring its near-perfect preservation and mirrorlike surfaces. It is part of a low-mintage commemorative program that unites culture, history, and paleontology.
A perfect addition for collectors of dinosaurs, wildlife, and rare Afghan issues.
