AJ76 Rider Zdzisław Beksiński 1 Oz 1000 CFA Francs Silver Coin Cameroon 2026

Zdzisław Beksiński in silver

Zdzisław Beksiński (1929–2005) from Sanok is one of the most recognisable Polish painters of the 20th century, a master of dark, dreamlike surrealism. He did not title his paintings – today they are known by conventional names or codes. Mint of Poland strikes coins featuring his works under licence from the Historical Museum in Sanok, which holds the copyright to his art.

The painting "AJ76 Rider"

The coin reproduces a painting showing a rider on a skeletal horse crossing a glowing red-orange landscape beneath a dark sky filled with birds. It is one of the works in which Beksiński most fully expressed his unsettling, dreamlike world. The AJ76 painting was chosen by fans of Beksiński's art, and the coin opens the second edition of the bestselling series.

Coin design

The painting is reproduced in full colour using digital printing, microprinting. The square coin (40 x 40 mm) is shaped like a picture frame with a mirror-finish silver passe-partout, alongside a relief fragment of another of the master's works. In the lower right corner is Beksiński's signature.

Packaging

The coin comes in a box with a Mint of Poland certificate of authenticity.

A gift idea

For admirers of Beksiński's work, surrealist art and fantasy, collectors of coins featuring paintings – a gift for someone with refined, dark taste.
