Botswana 5 pula Year Disabled Persons PR67 PCGS silver piedfort coin 1981

The 1981 Botswana 5 Pula Year of Disabled Persons silver piedfort coin is a heartfelt tribute to human dignity and equality. Issued to commemorate the International Year of Disabled Persons, this beautifully crafted coin symbolizes compassion and inclusivity. Struck in silver and graded PR67 Deep Cameo by PCGS, the obverse presents a touching scene — a teacher assisting a child seated at a table beneath the shade of a tree, with a traditional hut in the background. Above the figures appears the official UN emblem within a laurel wreath, surrounded by the inscriptions “INTERNATIONAL YEAR OF DISABLED PERSONS,” “5 PULA,” and the Setswana motto “TLAMELA DIGOLE,” meaning “Help the Disabled.” The reverse features Botswana’s Coat of Arms supported by two zebras, displaying a shield with waves, a cogwheel, a bull’s head, and an ear of sorghum, along with the motto IPELEGENG (“Work Together”) and the date 1981. This piedfort issue stands out for its double thickness and its noble humanitarian theme.
