Historical Background | What was Lebanon like in 1952?

The year 1952 was a year filled with political change and hope for Lebanon. After independence from France, the movement to modernize the nation and establish democracy gained momentum, and various commemorative items and coins were minted as symbols of independence and nation-building.

This 50 piastre silver coin is a symbolic piece that reflects this national pride. The cedar of Lebanon depicted on the obverse of the coin is a sacred tree that appears in the Old Testament and is considered a symbol of strength and eternity.

Rarity and Collector Rating

This coin was minted in relatively large numbers, but there are very few surviving examples in the high grade MS66.

• The biggest attraction of this item is that it has been certified MS66 by PCGS grading.

• It retains sharp stamping, a glossy surface, and is in perfect condition without scratches, which are not normally found in commercially available products.

• There are few transactions on the market, and it is extremely difficult to obtain, especially within Japan.

Therefore, this is a product that we highly recommend not only to beginner collectors, but also to advanced collectors who already own a certain number of foreign coins.

What is PCGS grading?

The American "PCGS (Professional Coin Grading Service)" is one of the world's most trusted coin grading organizations. They grade coins according to strict standards and quantify their condition using the "MS (Mint State)" scale. MS66 indicates excellent condition, with almost no visible imperfections even in unused condition.

PCGS holders also have built-in anti-counterfeiting features and an identification barcode to ensure authenticity.

Collectible value

This coin is an ideal collectible for:

• People who are interested in the history of the Middle East and Lebanon

• Antique coin collectors

• Those who wish to invest in international coins

• Advanced collector of highly graded (MS65 or higher) coins

Furthermore, as attention on Lebanon increases in the future, the premium value of this coin as a symbol of the country is likely to increase.

Perfect as a gift
