India 5 rupees Premier-Minister Jawaharlal Nehru PR68 PCGS CuNi coin 1989

This 1989 India 5 Rupees commemorative coin celebrates the birth centenary of Jawaharlal Nehru, the first Prime Minister of independent India and one of the most influential political leaders of the twentieth century. Struck in copper-nickel and certified by PCGS as PR68 Deep Cameo, this beautifully preserved proof issue honors the statesman who helped shape modern India through democratic institutions, economic planning, scientific development, and international diplomacy.

The commemorative side features a finely detailed right-facing portrait of Jawaharlal Nehru wearing his iconic Gandhi cap and traditional jacket. Surrounding the portrait are bilingual inscriptions including “JAWAHARLAL NEHRU,” “CENTENARY,” and the year 1989, all framed by a decorative denticle border. The opposite side displays the Lion Capital of Ashoka, India’s national emblem, above the denomination “5 RUPEES.” The country name appears in English and Hindi, while the national motto is positioned beneath the emblem. Deep mirrored fields contrast beautifully with the frosted devices, creating the striking appearance expected of a Deep Cameo proof coin.

Certified PR68DCAM by PCGS, this commemorative issue combines historical importance, exceptional eye appeal, and premium preservation. It is an excellent addition for collectors of Indian politics, world commemoratives, certified proof coinage, and twentieth-century historical figures.
