Centr. African Republic 1500 CFA Lances IDAC 1 Africa MS69 PCGS silver coin 2005

The Central African Republic 1500 CFA “Lances – IDAC 1 Africa” silver coin, issued in 2005, is a powerful numismatic tribute to African unity, wildlife, and cultural strength. Struck in silver and certified MS69 by PCGS, this coin belongs to the symbolic 1 Africa series and reflects the mission of the International Defense Against Crime (IDAC), represented through bold and meaningful imagery.

The obverse features three crossed lances radiating from the center, their spearheads pointing outward in a dynamic star-like formation. The lances are rendered with sharp detail, textured shafts, and pointed tips, symbolizing protection, vigilance, and collective defense. Surrounding the design is the inscription “REP. CENTRAFRICAINE,” with the denomination “1500 CFA” clearly engraved below. The mirrored field enhances the sculptural depth of the central motif.

On the reverse, an outline map of the African continent forms the background, over which a majestic elephant’s head is prominently placed at the center. The elephant, with detailed ears, tusks, trunk, and facial features, represents strength, wisdom, and Africa’s natural heritage. Encircling inscriptions read “DEVELOPPEMENT DE L’AFRIQUE CENTRALE,” “IDAC,” and “EMISSION MONETAIRE DE L’INSTITUT,” reinforcing the coin’s pan-African theme.

With its high-grade PCGS MS69 certification, elegant prooflike surfaces, and strong symbolic message, this silver issue is a compelling addition for collectors of African coins, wildlife themes, and modern world numismatics.
