A new coin.
The 1997 Gibraltar 1 Crown “Ancient Egypt” silver coin is a captivating commemorative issue from the celebrated “Evolution of Mankind” series, dedicated to one of the most influential civilizations of the ancient world. Struck in beautiful Proof quality and certified PCGS PR69 DCAM, this impressive silver coin honors the art, religion, architecture, and cultural achievements of Ancient Egypt. With deeply mirrored fields and frosted design elements, the coin offers exceptional visual contrast and near-perfect preservation, making it highly desirable for collectors of historical and archaeological themes.
The reverse presents an elaborate composition inspired by Egyptian civilization and mythology. At the center stand two ancient Egyptian figures, including a crowned deity figure and a female figure adorned with traditional headdress symbolism. Beside them appears a kneeling scribe carving hieroglyphics onto a vertical stone tablet covered with engraved Egyptian symbols. In the background rise the famous pyramids of Egypt, rendered with detailed geometric lines and desert contours. Surrounding inscriptions include “EVOLUTION OF MANKIND,” “ANCIENT EGYPT 5000 B.C.-30 B.C.,” and the denomination “1 CROWN.” The frosted relief details stand out sharply against the reflective proof surface, emphasizing the hieroglyphs, garments, facial features, and monumental pyramids. The obverse displays the elegant portrait of Queen Elizabeth II wearing the royal crown, earrings, and necklace, framed by the inscriptions “ELIZABETH II,” “GIBRALTAR,” and the date “1997,” with a finely denticled rim.
Certified by PCGS in outstanding PR69 Deep Cameo condition, this silver commemorative is an exceptional collectible for enthusiasts of Egyptology, ancient history, mythology, pyramids, archaeology, and world silver coinage. A remarkable tribute to one of humanity’s greatest civilizations.
