Belarus 10 rubles 100th Anniversary of Maxim Tank PR69 PCGS silver coin 2012

The Belarus 10 roubles silver coin 2012 celebrates the 100th anniversary of Maxim Tank (1912–1995), a distinguished Belarusian poet, translator, and public figure. Known for his lyrical, philosophical and patriotic works, Tank’s poetry became a cornerstone of Belarusian literature in the 20th century. The reverse of the coin presents a lifelike portrait of the poet, his thoughtful pose emphasizing creative reflection. To the left, ears of wheat and an expansive river landscape symbolize the deep bond between his art and the land of Belarus. Above, a flock of cranes soars across the sky — a recurring poetic image in his works, representing freedom and eternity. At the bottom is his name “Максім Танк” and the years of his life, 1912–1995. The obverse carries a symbolic composition: a large tree with wide-spreading branches grows from the pages of an open book, framed by fields of wheat and cranes in flight. Around the design are inscriptions “РЭСПУБЛІКА БЕЛАРУСЬ”, “2012”, “10 РУБЛЁЎ” and the silver hallmark “Ag 925”. Struck in proof quality and graded PCGS PR69, this coin embodies cultural heritage and artistic mastery, making it a prized treasure for collectors of literature-themed numismatics.
