Lithuania 50 litu Mickiewicz Mitskevich Literature PR70 PCGS silver coin 1998

The 1998 Lithuania 50 Litu silver Proof coin honors Adam Mickiewicz, one of the most influential poets of 19th-century European literature, commemorating the bicentenary of his birth in 1798. The reverse creates an imaginative portrait from architectural elements: Mickiewicz’s profile is integrated with a church bell tower, historic buildings and a long classical façade, while a sweeping quill feather rises above his forehead, symbolizing poetry and literary creativity. The dates 1798–1855 identify his lifetime. The obverse features Lithuania’s Vytis coat of arms with an armored knight on horseback, raised sword and shield. A large horizontal quill crosses the circular composition beneath the 1998 date, with the 50 Litu denomination and mint mark below. Mickiewicz was a poet, dramatist and essayist whose works became central to Polish and Lithuanian cultural heritage and Romantic literature. Struck in silver with a Proof finish and certified PCGS PR70, this flawless literary commemorative offers exceptional appeal for collectors of poetry, writers, European culture and Lithuanian numismatics.
