Mali 10 francs Independence Modibo History Politics PR64 PCGS silver coin 1960

The Mali 10 Francs Independence silver coin of 1960 is an important numismatic tribute to the birth of the independent Republic of Mali and its first president, Modibo Keita. Struck in .900 silver and certified PCGS PR64DCAM, this commemorative issue combines political history with an impressive Deep Cameo proof presentation. One side features a frontal bust of President Modibo Keita wearing a traditional patterned cap and draped clothing, surrounded by his presidential title and the independence date of 22 September 1960. Keita was a central figure in Mali’s independence movement and became the country’s first president. The opposite side displays Mali’s national emblem: a soaring bird above a stylized mosque, crossed bows and arrows, and a rising sun, with the 10 Francs denomination below. The deeply mirrored fields and frosted relief enhance every symbolic detail, while the PCGS certification adds collector confidence. A compelling acquisition for collectors of African independence, political history, silver proofs, and certified world coinage.
