A new coin.
The Congo 1000 Francs African Art & Culture – Mursi People silver coin, issued in 2014, is a powerful tribute to one of Africa’s most distinctive indigenous cultures. Struck by the Republic of Congo with a face value of 1000 francs, this coin captures the strength, identity, and traditions of the Mursi people in an expressive antique-style finish.
The reverse presents two standing Mursi figures in traditional attire, rendered with striking realism. Both figures wear characteristic body adornments and lip plates, with intricate necklaces, textured hair, and ceremonial objects balanced above their heads. The anatomical details, facial expressions, and engraved skin textures emphasize authenticity and cultural respect. Around the design appear the inscriptions “Silver Ounce 2014” and “African Art & Culture – Mursi,” along with a small outline of the African continent marked with purity information.
The obverse features the national coat of arms of the Republic of Congo: a central shield supported by two elephants, crowned above, with a lion’s head inside a horseshoe at the center. Flowing lines, chains, and heraldic elements surround the emblem, accompanied by the inscriptions “Republique du Congo” and “1000 Francs CFA.”
Struck in silver with an antique finish and certified PCGS MS70, this flawless example represents the highest possible grade. A compelling blend of numismatics and anthropology, it is an outstanding choice for collectors of African culture, ethnographic themes, and modern certified world coins.
