Chad 500 francs Millennium African Continent PR68 PCGS silver coin 2000

The Chad 500 Francs Millennium Silver Coin issued in 2000 is a symbolic numismatic tribute to the dawn of a new era and Africa’s place in the global future. Struck by the Republic of Chad, this commemorative coin celebrates the Millennium with a powerful and minimalist artistic concept focused on unity, progress, and continental identity.

The reverse features a stylized map of the African continent radiating outward from a central point, surrounded by dynamic linear rays that suggest energy, renewal, and the passage of time. The word “MILLENNIUM” appears clearly along the lower edge, reinforcing the theme of transition into the 21st century. The clean geometry and polished fields highlight the modern design approach typical of Millennium-era commemoratives.

The obverse displays the official legend “RÉPUBLIQUE DU TCHAD” along with the national motto “UNITÉ – TRAVAIL – PROGRÈS.” A thoughtful female portrait is shown in profile, her hand resting near her chin, symbolizing reflection, wisdom, and hope for the future. The denomination “500 FRANCS” is placed prominently at the bottom, framed by smooth mirrored surfaces.

Struck in silver with Proof quality, this coin is certified by PCGS as PR68 DCAM, confirming its deep cameo contrast and outstanding preservation. Issued as part of a Millennium-themed program, it represents both cultural symbolism and collectible appeal. An excellent choice for collectors of African coins, Millennium issues, and certified modern silver.
