| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse reproduces Vincent van Gogh's iconic painting 'Sunflowers' (1888) in full polychrome color across the entire square field, rendered in high relief with exceptional sculptural fidelity. Fifteen sunflowers in varying stages of bloom — some fully open, others wilting or in bud — are arranged in a pale ceramic vase set upon a flat surface, all rendered against a luminous yellow background characteristic of van Gogh's Post-Impressionist palette. The floral heads display intricate detailing of petals and seed discs in tones of ochre, gold, brown, and green, faithfully capturing the impasto texture of the original oil painting. The square planchet format frames the composition precisely, with a plain raised border delineating the field. |

The Bank of Central African States issues commemorative pieces under a licensing arrangement that has nothing to do with the monetary needs of its member states — Cameroon, CAR, Chad, Congo, Gabon, and Equatorial Guinea — and everything to do with the global novelty coin market. Van Gogh's Sunflowers series, painted in Arles in 1888 in preparation for Gauguin's visit, has become one of the most commercially recycled images in the collector coin industry. The zinc core here is doing the structural work; the silver plating is measured in microns.
