Cameroon 500 francs Peter Paul Rubens Lot Daughters Art PR70 PCGS Ag coin 2017

The Cameroon 500 Francs silver coin issued in 2017 is a striking numismatic tribute to classical European art, dedicated to “Lot and His Daughters” by the Flemish master Peter Paul Rubens. Struck for Cameroon and denominated at 500 Francs CFA, this coin combines fine art, biblical narrative, and modern minting excellence into one collectible piece.

The reverse features a detailed colored reproduction of Rubens’ dramatic composition. The scene depicts Lot seated between his two daughters, their intertwined figures rendered with dynamic movement, expressive gestures, and rich chiaroscuro typical of Baroque painting. The daughters’ flowing drapery, exposed shoulders, and intense gazes emphasize emotion and tension, while the dark background and warm tones heighten the dramatic atmosphere. The artist’s name appears beneath the image, and the artwork is framed by the circular coin format.

The obverse displays the coat of arms of the Republic of Cameroon with balanced scales, a central star, crossed fasces, and ribbon, surrounded by inscriptions “REPUBLIQUE DU CAMEROUN,” the year 2017, and the denomination “500 FRANCS CFA.”

Minted in silver with a refined Proof Deep Cameo finish, this example is certified by PCGS as PR70 DCAM, representing the highest possible grade. An exceptional choice for collectors of art coins, Baroque masterpieces, and certified modern world issues.
