Sierra Leone has no meaningful connection to ancient Egyptian religion, and Anubis has no place in West African numismatic tradition. This piece belongs to a category of privately designed legal-tender coins produced under licensing arrangements with smaller sovereign issuers — a practice that accelerated sharply after 2010 as mint marketing firms sought face-value authority without the constraints of a national collecting program. The Bank of Sierra Leone has issued dozens of such contracts.
KM# 1520 reflects how crowded this niche has become by 2023.
