| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents the complete full-colour reproduction of Paolo Veronese's 'The Wedding at Cana' (1563, Musée du Louvre, Paris) across the entire rectangular field. The sweeping composition depicts a lavish open-air banquet set within a grand classical architectural setting of colonnaded loggias, balustrades, and a domed tower rising against a blue sky. Scores of elaborately attired guests, servants, and musicians populate multiple planes of depth, with Christ and the Virgin Mary seated centrally at the long banquet table. Stone vessels, dogs, and sumptuous tableware animate the foreground, faithfully evoking the biblical miracle of the transformation of water into wine. The design is rendered in vivid polychrome colour printing directly onto the silver planchet. |

The Bank of Central African States — the BEAC — issues collector coinage for its six member states under a shared monetary framework, but pieces of this weight fall firmly outside circulation and into the realm of prestige bullion presentation. At just under a kilogram of .999 silver, this is a format used by a small number of mints globally, typically produced in very limited quantities for institutional gifting, high-end numismatic retail, or sovereign wealth display.
The Wedding at Cana subject draws from a tradition of large-format Catholic iconographic coinage that has grown notably since Vatican-adjacent themes proved commercially viable in the European and Asian collector markets through the 2010s.
