Cameroon 500 francs Zodiac Signs series Aries hologram silver coin 2010

The Cameroon 500 Francs Zodiac Signs Series “Aries” hologram silver coin, issued in 2010, is a striking numismatic tribute to the first sign of the zodiac, symbolizing strength, leadership, courage, and unstoppable energy. Aries, ruled by Mars, has long represented initiative, determination, and the bold spirit of new beginnings, all powerfully reflected in this expressive design.

The obverse features a dynamic depiction of a ram, the traditional symbol of Aries, shown reclining yet alert, with massive curved horns rendered in high relief. The ram’s body is enhanced with holographic coloration, shifting between deep blue, violet, and metallic tones depending on the angle of light. Behind the animal, a finely textured background forms an astrological chart with concentric circles, degree markings, and zodiac divisions. The Aries glyph is clearly visible, while additional elements include stars, a crescent moon, constellations, stylized vegetation, and a slender tree, all contributing to a celestial nighttime atmosphere.

The reverse displays the coat of arms of the Republic of Cameroon with the scales of justice inside a shield, flanked by crossed fasces. Surrounding inscriptions include “REPUBLIQUE DU CAMEROUN,” the denomination “500 FRANCS CFA,” and the national motto “PAIX – TRAVAIL – PATRIE.” Struck in proof-quality silver with hologram technology, this coin is part of the early Zodiac Signs series and remains highly desirable for collectors of astrology-themed and innovative modern world coins.
