French Polynesia 5000 poa Crescent Island X#3 MS 68 PCGS plastic coin 2006

The French Polynesia 5000 poa coin, issued in 2006, is a striking modern collectible that reflects the serene beauty of tropical island landscapes through an unconventional plastic format. Dedicated to the theme of island nature, this vibrant green piece captures the essence of Polynesian paradise with a bold and minimalist artistic approach.

The obverse presents a stylized tropical scene: two leaning palm trees with detailed fronds rise from a small island silhouette, set against a large circular sun or moon rendered in a fine dotted pattern. Above, the inscription “ILE CRESCENT” curves along the rim, while below appear the denomination “5000 POA” and the date “2006.” The smooth reflective surface and bright green coloration enhance the contrast of the engraved elements. The reverse mirrors the same composition in a reversed orientation, repeating the palm trees, island, celestial disc, and inscriptions, creating a symmetrical and visually engaging design.

Struck in plastic with a distinctive translucent green finish and graded MS68 by PCGS, this coin stands out for its originality and high preservation. Its unusual material, combined with tropical imagery, makes it a rare and eye-catching addition to any world coin collection.
