Burkina Faso 1000 francs Lion KM-25 African Fauna Cat MS67 PCGS silver coin 2014

The 2014 Burkina Faso 1000 Francs CFA silver coin is an impressive modern issue from the renowned “African Big Five” series, dedicated to the majestic lion—one of the most powerful symbols of the wild African savannah. This coin captures the essence of strength, dominance, and natural beauty, making it highly appealing to collectors and wildlife enthusiasts.

The obverse features a breathtaking close-up portrait of a lion’s face, rendered in exceptional detail. The textured mane flows outward with finely engraved strands, while the piercing eyes, whiskers, nose, and muzzle create a lifelike and intense expression. The inscription “The African Big Five” arches above, with the year “2014” below and the purity marking “Ag 999” placed to the side. The reverse displays the national emblem of Burkina Faso: two rearing horses flank a central shield with a star, crossed spears behind, and a banner above reading “BURKINA FASO.” Below appears an open book and the motto “Unité, Progrès, Justice.” The surrounding inscription “REPUBLIQUE DU BURKINA FASO” and denomination “1000 FRANCS CFA” complete the composition.

Struck in .999 silver and graded PCGS MS67, this coin boasts outstanding mint state quality with sharp relief and satin-like surfaces. A striking combination of wildlife artistry and national symbolism, it is a superb addition to any modern numismatic collection.
