A new coin.
The Belarus 10 rubles silver coin “Capercaillie – Bird of the Year 2020” continues the renowned Conservation of Wildlife series, dedicated to preserving rare and symbolic bird species of Belarus. The western capercaillie, a majestic forest bird, is admired for its impressive courtship display, where the male spreads his fan-shaped tail and raises his head in a powerful mating call. The obverse of the coin carries the national emblem of the Republic of Belarus, framed by inscriptions “РЭСПУБЛIКА БЕЛАРУСЬ” and “10 РУБЛЁЎ.” A stylized bird resting in a nest represents the theme of protection of nature. Also featured are the year of issue “2020” and the hallmark “Ag 925.” The reverse presents a striking image of the capercaillie in full display, feathers finely engraved, tail fanned wide and head lifted in song. Around the scene run inscriptions in Belarusian: “ПТУШКА ГОДА” (“Bird of the Year”) and “ГЛУХАР” (“Capercaillie”). The Proof quality strike ensures a vivid contrast between the mirror-like background and frosted details, emphasizing the dramatic stance of the bird. Minted in sterling silver and certified by PCGS with the perfect grade PR70DCAM, this issue represents numismatic artistry at its peak. With its limited mintage and ecological significance, the coin is highly prized among collectors of ornithological and environmental protection themes.
