Congo 1000 francs Philosopher Immanuel Kant Science PR68 PCGS silver coin 2004

The Congo 1000 Francs silver coin issued in 2004 is dedicated to the great philosopher Immanuel Kant, one of the most influential thinkers in the history of Western philosophy. This issue belongs to a science and education themed program and honors Kant’s lasting contribution to ethics, epistemology, and rational thought. Struck for the Republic of the Congo, the coin is certified by PCGS in PR68 DCAM quality, highlighting its strong visual contrast and collectible appeal.

The reverse features a finely modeled bust of Immanuel Kant, shown facing forward with a calm, thoughtful expression. His distinctive 18th-century hairstyle, formal coat, and detailed facial features emphasize his intellectual character. Above the portrait appears the inscription “Immanuel Kant,” while the dates “1724–1804” are placed below, marking his lifespan. The year 2004 is engraved to the side, standing out against deep mirrored fields that contrast with the frosted relief.

The obverse displays an allegorical seated female figure holding a tablet inscribed with the national motto “Unité Travail Progrès.” Flowing garments, graceful posture, and balanced composition reflect classical symbolism. Surrounding inscriptions read “République du Congo” and “1000 Francs,” completing the official design.

Struck in silver with deep cameo proof finish and certified PCGS PR68 DCAM, this coin is an excellent choice for collectors of philosophy, science, education, and historically important figures, combining intellectual heritage with refined modern minting.
