France 10 francs Goya Art Clothed Maya PR69 PCGS silver coin 1996

The 1996 France 10 Francs silver coin from the renowned “Treasures of European Museums” series is dedicated to Francisco Goya’s iconic masterpiece La Maja Vestida (The Clothed Maja), a celebrated work of Spanish art that reflects elegance, mystery, and the refined aesthetics of the late 18th century.

The obverse features a finely engraved depiction of the reclining female figure, gracefully posed on a couch. Her body is delicately rendered with soft contours, while her clothing drapes naturally, emphasizing both realism and artistic sensitivity. The inscriptions “RF 1996” appear to the left, while above the figure is the title “LA MAJA VESTIDA.” Beneath the composition, the engraved signature “Goya” adds authenticity and artistic identity. The mirror-like proof background enhances the contrast between polished fields and frosted relief.

The reverse displays the classic series design with “10 FRANCS” and “1/2 EURO” at the center, surrounded by stars and horizontal lines. The circular inscriptions “TRESORS DES MUSEES D’EUROPE” and “LIBERTE EGALITE FRATERNITE” frame the composition, reinforcing its European cultural theme.

Struck in silver with a high-quality Proof finish and graded PCGS PR69 DCAM, this coin is a refined tribute to classical art and museum heritage, making it a valuable collectible.
