| Additional information |
The "Revolver" belongs to a genre of legal-tender novelty issues the BEAC has licensed to private minting houses — primarily the Bavarian State Mint and B.H. Mayer's — for sale to the international collector market rather than domestic circulation. The Central African Economic and Monetary Community member states whose names appear on these coins rarely if ever see them in commerce. They function as royalty-generating instruments: the issuing authority collects a licensing fee, the mint handles production and distribution, and the coins are sold through European and North American dealers at multiples of face value.
KM#311 places this within a long sequence of similarly structured BEAC collector issues.
