Indonesia Irian Barat 25 sen President Sukarno Genuine UNC PCGS Al coin 1962

The 1962 Indonesia Irian Barat 25 Sen KM-8.2 aluminum coin, certified by PCGS Genuine UNC Details, is a notable issue from the special coinage struck for Irian Barat (West Irian) during a transformative period in Indonesian history. These coins were produced as the territory was being integrated into the Republic of Indonesia, making them historically significant pieces that reflect national identity, political change, and the leadership of President Sukarno.

The obverse features a left-facing portrait of President Sukarno, Indonesia’s first president and one of the architects of the nation’s independence. He is depicted wearing a traditional peci cap, surrounded by the inscription “Presiden Republik Indonesia” and the name “Sukarno,” with small decorative rosette symbols separating the legends. The reverse displays the denomination “25 Sen” at the center, enclosed by a wreath formed by a flowering branch with blossoms and leaves on the left and a laurel branch on the right. The wreath is tied at the base above the date 1962, creating an elegant and balanced design.

Struck in aluminum, this KM-8.2 issue represents an important chapter in Indonesia’s numismatic and political history. Its association with Sukarno, distinctive Irian Barat origin, and certified UNC Details status make it a desirable collectible for enthusiasts of Southeast Asian, historical, and political coinage.
