A new coin, an original blister packaging, a CoA.
The Armenia 100 Dram silver coin issued in 2016 is dedicated to the 125th anniversary of the famous Armenian painter Alexander Bazhbeuk-Melikian, a master known for his expressive portraits and genre compositions that combined European artistic trends with national traditions. On the obverse, the coin presents a finely engraved portrait of the artist holding a brush, next to sketches of elegant women and symbolic color spots in rainbow palette, representing his devotion to vivid expression and harmony. The inscription Alexander Bazhbeuk-Melikian with the anniversary mark 125 years is engraved alongside, emphasizing the commemorative nature. The reverse is adorned with a full-color reproduction of one of his most notable works showing a reclining woman in a white dress with a red sash, rendered with dynamic brushstrokes that highlight the sensuality and energy of his style. The denomination 100 Dram and year of issue are inscribed on the surface, confirming its official status as a legal tender commemorative coin of the Republic of Armenia. Struck in silver with proof quality, this issue is a rare artistic tribute that blends fine numismatics with cultural heritage, making it a perfect acquisition for collectors of world coins, Armenian art and painter-themed commemoratives.
