| Additional information |
A 40 mm diameter gold coin weighing 0.16 g is a physical curiosity worth noting: the gold content is negligible, making this a collector issue marketed on novelty rather than bullion merit. Niger has no domestic mint; these pieces are produced under contract in Europe, typically through the Bavarian State Mint or similar facilities serving the African commemorative market. The dual-denomination structure — CFA francs paired with U.S. dollars — has no legal tender basis in American law and exists purely to signal value to overseas buyers.
