Cameroon 2500 francs St Nicholas Wondermaker Church PR70 PCGS silver coin 2016

The Cameroon 2500 Francs silver coin issued in 2016 is a refined commemorative piece dedicated to Saint Nicholas the Wondermaker, one of the most venerated Christian saints, and to the architectural heritage associated with his name. Struck in silver and presented in exceptional Proof quality, this coin combines deep spiritual symbolism with precise numismatic craftsmanship.

The obverse features a detailed colorized icon-style portrait of Saint Nicholas shown frontally with a serene expression, a halo surrounding his head, and traditional episcopal vestments richly ornamented with patterns and crosses. In his raised hand, he performs a blessing gesture, while the other hand holds a sacred book. To the right, a gilded Orthodox cross stands out against the mirrored background, adding contrast and symbolic depth. Cyrillic inscriptions identify the saint and reinforce the religious theme.

The reverse depicts the impressive architectural composition of St. Nicholas Cathedral, rendered with sharp relief and fine detailing. Visible elements include domes crowned with crosses, arched windows, decorative facades, towers, and rooflines, all precisely engraved. Around the rim are the year of issue, the country name Cameroon, and the denomination 2500 Francs CFA. Additional Cyrillic text below names the cathedral.

The coin is struck in silver, Proof finish, and certified by PCGS with the highest grade PR70 DCAM, confirming its flawless condition. Part of a church architecture and Christian heritage themed program, this issue appeals to collectors of religious art, sacred architecture, and certified modern world coins.

A visually striking and spiritually meaningful addition to any high-end numismatic collection.
