Azerbaijan 5 manat Telecommunications Satellite Azerspace-1 PR69 PCGS 2013

The 2013 Azerbaijan 5 manat silver proof coin, certified PR69 DCAM by PCGS, is dedicated to the launch of Azerspace-1, the country’s first telecommunications satellite. The obverse proudly bears the State Emblem of Azerbaijan: an eight-pointed star with the eternal flame in its center, framed by a wheat ear and an oak branch, symbols of fertility, prosperity, and national strength. Surrounding it are geometric orbital lines, underlining the theme of progress and space exploration. On the reverse, the Azerspace-1 satellite is shown in fine detail with its solar panels unfolded, orbiting above a stylized globe. The background is filled with the repeated inscription “AZERSPACE-1,” while the rim carries the bilingual legend “İLK TELEKOMMUNİKASİYA PEYKİ – FIRST SATELLITE.” The date “8 FEVRAL 2013” marks the historic launch. Struck in proof silver with deep cameo contrast, this coin captures the fusion of tradition and innovation, making it a true rarity for collectors of modern world and space-themed numismatics.
