Argentina 25 pesos Culture Zamba Dancers Folk Dance PR69 PCGS silver coin 1997

The Argentina 25 Pesos silver coin of 1997 celebrates La Zamba, one of the most traditional and beloved folk dances of the nation. Issued as part of the Encuentro de Dos Mundos series, it highlights Argentina’s cultural identity through dance and music. On the obverse, two dancers are depicted mid-performance: the man in gaucho attire, with boots, wide trousers, and sash, and the woman in a flowing folkloric dress, holding her skirt gracefully. Their synchronized movement embodies the elegance and passion of the Zamba, with the inscription ENCUENTRO DE DOS MUNDOS – LA ZAMBA framing the scene. The reverse features Argentina’s national coat of arms with the radiant sun, encircled by the coats of arms of other Ibero-American nations, symbolizing cultural ties and shared heritage across the region. The legend REPUBLICA ARGENTINA is inscribed around, while at the bottom appear the denomination $25 and the year 1997. Certified PR69DCAM by PCGS, this proof silver coin displays deep cameo contrast, mirror-like fields, and frosted reliefs. A tribute to Argentina’s folkloric tradition, it is an essential addition to any collection of cultural and artistic numismatics.
