To provide a coating composition which can be cured by an electron beam at a low irradiation dose, hardly causes the warp of a substrate due to cure shrinkage, and can give a cured article (coated article) excellent in stain and scratch resistances.

This electron beam-curable coating composition comprises inorganic particles having an average particle size d of 3-50 μm and a Knoop hardness of 1,300-8,000 kg/mm2 and a polyester (meth)acrylate having a cyclic skeleton and at least two (meth)acryloyl groups.
