Angola 500 kwanzas National Bank Foundation Armed Men PR62 PCGS silver coin 1991

The Angola 500 Kwanzas silver coin 1991 was issued to mark the 15th anniversary of the Banco Nacional de Angola, founded in 1976. This commemorative release highlights the role of the central bank in the country’s economic and institutional development. The obverse depicts three male figures, each holding different objects — a rifle, a machete, and an axe — symbolizing strength, work, and national unity. Above them is a five-pointed star, and to the left detailed plants underline Angola’s natural wealth. Along the edge is the inscription “A BANCA AO SERVIÇO DO POVO – 1976 ANO DA FUNDAÇÃO DO B.N.A.,” which translates as “The Bank at the Service of the People – 1976, Year of the Foundation of the BNA.” The reverse features the emblem of the Banco Nacional de Angola, consisting of a star within a gear and framed by a wreath of grain. Around it are inscribed the names of the provinces of Angola, such as Cabinda, Benguela, Malange, Huambo, Huila, Cunene, and others, emphasizing the national structure of the financial system. The legend around the rim reads “BANCO NACIONAL DE ANGOLA – REPÚBLICA POPULAR DE ANGOLA.” This piece is struck in silver and certified PR62DCAM by PCGS, which confirms both authenticity and collectible status. Combining national symbolism with precise engraving, the coin offers both artistic and historical value, making it an excellent addition to a collection of African numismatics and late 20th-century commemorative issues. 🌟 If you’re looking for a specific coin or have a personal wishlist — send it to us at contact@coinsberg.com
