| 背面描述 | A large, boldly rendered lion stands in three-quarter view facing right, depicted in full body amid stylized savanna vegetation in the lower field. The animal is portrayed with fine mane detail, muscular form, and a naturalistic stance conveying strength and dignity. The legend 'REPUBLIQUE DU NIGER' curves along the upper periphery in raised Latin lettering, occupying approximately two-thirds of the rim. The composition fills the field generously in the large-type format, set against a deeply mirrored proof surface with a beaded border. |

Niger issued this coin in 1968, just eight years after independence from France, during a period when Hamani Diori's government was actively cultivating an international image of stability to attract foreign investment and aid. The franc CFA remained the operative currency in daily transactions; these silver pieces were almost certainly struck for collector and diplomatic purposes rather than commerce.
KM#8.2 distinguishes this as the large-type variety — a die classification separating it from the earlier KM#8.1 strikes, with the size difference concentrated in the central design elements.
