| Additional information |
Rwanda has issued a series of fractional gold miniatures in recent years targeting the collector market rather than circulation, and this piece sits at the extreme low end of practical gold coin production — 0.28 g pushes against the technical limits of consistent striking at commercial scale. The black diamond inlay requires a separate setting process after striking, a complication that makes quality control across a mintage run genuinely difficult.
