Haiti 50 gourdes Woman with Shell Mark Left KM-104.1 PR 69 PCGS silver coin 1973

The Haiti 50 Gourdes silver proof coin issued in 1973 is one of the most visually striking commemorative pieces of modern Haitian numismatics. Featuring a beautifully sculpted female figure and tropical symbolism, this certified PR69 PCGS issue captures themes of Caribbean identity, nature, beauty, and national heritage through elegant artistic design and highly reflective proof surfaces.

The obverse depicts a young woman shown in profile emerging from the sea while raising a large seashell toward her face. Her long flowing hair, patterned clothing, delicate facial features, and graceful pose create a romantic tropical composition. Behind her appear calm ocean waters, a shoreline, small palm trees, and open space emphasizing the island atmosphere. Large inscriptions curve around the upper rim while a decorative beaded border frames the entire design. The reverse displays Haiti’s national coat of arms with a central palm tree surrounded by crossed flags, cannons, military standards, drums, weapons, cannonballs, and ornamental details resting above the national motto ribbon. Large denomination markings, date, fineness mark, and mirrored proof fields complete the design.

This commemorative issue reflects Haiti’s cultural identity and Caribbean imagery, combining feminine allegory with national symbolism in a sophisticated proof format.

Certified PR69 by PCGS and struck in silver with exceptional proof quality, this coin represents an attractive addition for collectors seeking artistic world commemoratives and Caribbean themes.
