Argentina 25 pesos Presidente Sarmiento Ship Clipper PR68 PCGS silver coin 2002

The Argentina 25 Pesos silver coin of 2002 honors the Fragata ARA Presidente Sarmiento, one of the most iconic ships in Argentine naval history. Launched in 1897, this majestic sailing frigate served as a training vessel for the Navy and later became a museum ship, permanently moored in Buenos Aires. The obverse of the coin presents the frigate in full sail, cutting through the waves with impressive detail — tall masts, billowing sails, and rigging carefully engraved. Surrounding the image are five stars and the inscription FRAGATA A.R.A. PTE. SARMIENTO. The reverse depicts the national coat of arms of Argentina encircled by the emblems of other Ibero-American countries, signifying unity within the commemorative numismatic program. Around the edge appear REPUBLICA ARGENTINA, the denomination $25 and the year 2002. Struck in proof silver and certified PR68DCAM by PCGS, this coin displays frosted reliefs and mirrored fields, emphasizing its artistic elegance. A rare collector’s item, it combines Argentina’s maritime legacy with the international spirit of the Ibero-American series.
