Ghana's Neptune coin belongs to a wave of high-relief bullion issues that African central banks have increasingly authorized since the early 2010s, largely to capture premium collector revenue in European and Asian markets rather than to serve any domestic monetary function. The Bank of Ghana has leaned heavily on this strategy, producing legal-tender silver rounds that circulate almost exclusively through international bullion dealers.
