| Additional information |
Cabinda is an Angolan exclave entirely separated from Angola proper by the Democratic Republic of Congo, and no "Banco de Cabinda" has ever functioned as a recognized central bank. These pieces were struck for the collector market, not for circulation, and the issuing authority exists in name only — produced during a period when the territory's FLEC separatist movement was generating international attention but no actual monetary infrastructure.
