Cameroon 500 francs Painter Ghirlandaio Madonna Art PR70 PCGS silver coin 2017

The Cameroon 500 Francs CFA “Madonna” silver coin (2017) is a magnificent numismatic homage to Renaissance religious art, inspired by a celebrated Madonna composition by Domenico Ghirlandaio, one of the leading masters of the Florentine Renaissance. Issued by the Republic of Cameroon, this coin transforms a timeless sacred scene into a refined collectible of exceptional artistic depth.

The reverse presents a detailed colorized reproduction of the Madonna with the Christ Child, surrounded by additional youthful figures rendered in soft, harmonious tones.

The composition is enclosed within an elaborate gilded ornamental frame featuring floral motifs, scrolls, and classical decorative elements that enhance the icon-like presence of the artwork.

The obverse features the official coat of arms of Cameroon with a central shield, scales of justice, star, crossed fasces, and banners, encircled by inscriptions “République du Cameroun,” the year, and the denomination 500 Francs CFA. The deep mirror Proof surface combined with rich gilding gives the coin an elegant and luxurious appearance.

Struck in silver and certified PCGS PR70 DCAM, this flawless example represents the highest standard of minting quality. A perfect choice for collectors of fine art coins, Renaissance themes, and elite PCGS-certified world issues.
