Description from the seller
CAMBODIA. 50 Sen. 1959.
- Denomination: 50 Sen.
- Year: 1959.
- Inscriptions: Obverse: ceremonial altar beneath an ornamental structure with symbolic elements and a Khmer inscription around it. Reverse: “ROYAUME DU CAMBODGE · 50 SEN · 1959” with the denomination in Khmer at the center, surrounded by a vegetal wreath.
- Grade: MS65 (NGC).
A 50 Sen coin with a richly detailed design and strong symbolic significance. The obverse features a ceremonial altar framed by complex decorative elements inspired by traditional Khmer art, showcasing the fine engraving. The reverse presents a more orderly composition, with an inscription in French and the denomination in Khmer surrounded by a well-defined laurel wreath. The coin is in excellent condition, with intense original luster, clean fields, and sharp reliefs, showing only minimal contact marks. Issued during the Kingdom of Cambodia, it reflects a period of cultural affirmation and balance between local tradition and Western influences in the mid-20th century.
Disclaimer: For orders shipped outside the European Union, I want to leave absolutely clear that I do ship from Spain, which means that if the package is sent to any country outside the European Union, and/or inside EU that has special tax agreement (example: Canary Islands), it might be stopped in your local customs and they might ask you to pay taxes. This is a customs legal procedure and it is completely out of our control. Thanks for your understanding.
