Colombia 10000 pesos Two Worlds Encounter Santa Fe Bogota PR66 PCGS Ag coin 1991

The Colombia 10,000 Pesos 1991 “Encounter of Two Worlds” silver coin is a high-quality commemorative issue struck at the Santa Fe de Bogotá Mint, marking 500 years since the historic encounter between Europe and the Americas. This example is certified PCGS Proof 66 Deep Cameo, offering exceptional visual contrast and refined presentation.

The obverse features an architectural depiction of the historic Casa de la Moneda, Santa Fe de Bogotá, shown from a dynamic angled perspective. Fine details of the colonial building are visible, including windows, doors, rooflines, and the paved foreground leading toward the structure. Above the building is the inscription “CASA DE MONEDA SANTA FE BOGOTÁ 1620”, referencing the founding year of the mint. The surrounding legend “ENCUENTRO DE DOS MUNDOS” curves along the rim, while the commemorative dates 1492–1992 appear at the bottom. Deep mirrored fields contrast sharply with the frosted architectural relief.

The reverse displays the national coat of arms of Colombia at center, crowned by a spread-winged condor. Surrounding the central emblem is a full circle of historic coats of arms and heraldic shields, each uniquely shaped and finely engraved, forming a decorative and symbolic border. The inscriptions “REPÚBLICA DE COLOMBIA” and “10000 PESOS 1991” complete the design.

Struck in silver with strong Deep Cameo contrast, this certified Proof issue represents an outstanding blend of history, artistry, and modern Colombian numismatics.
