Armenia 5 dram 5th Anniversary of Dram Money Banknotes proof silver coin 1998

The Armenian 5 dram silver coin issued in 1998 commemorates the 5th anniversary of the national currency — the dram. Introduced in 1993 after the collapse of the Soviet Union, the dram became a symbol of independence and economic sovereignty for the Republic of Armenia. The reverse of the coin features an artistic arrangement of the country’s first banknotes: 10, 25, 50, 100, 200, and 500 dram notes, radiating outward like a fan. Each banknote is reproduced with its unique design details, accompanied by the Armenian inscription dedicated to the anniversary. Below, the national symbol of eternity — a spiral rosette — adds depth and authenticity. The obverse shows the Armenian coat of arms: an eagle and lion supporting a heraldic shield with Mount Ararat, Noah’s Ark, wheat, lion, eagle, and sword, along with the denomination “5 dram” and the year of issue, 1998. Struck in proof silver, this coin embodies both the pride of monetary independence and the artistry of numismatic design, making it a true treasure for collectors.
