| 正面铭文 | REPUBLIQUE DU CONGO UNITE TRAVAIL PROGRES 100 FRANCS CFA (Translation: Republic of the Congo Unity Work Progress) |
| 背面描述 | The reverse presents a detailed portrait of American gangster Al Capone rendered in a photographic style at the right of the field, depicted wearing his characteristic wide-brimmed fedora hat and suit. To the left, symbolic attributes of his criminal career are depicted in relief: a revolver handgun and a whiskey bottle referencing Prohibition-era bootlegging. The outer border is designed as a roulette wheel with numbered segments, evoking the illegal gambling operations associated with Capone. The legend AL CAPONE and the date 2024 appear in the upper field, with the life dates 1899–1947 at lower left and the fineness inscription 0.5 G .999 FINE GOLD at lower right. |

The "Al Capone" name on an official BEAC issue is less absurd than it sounds — several Central African member states have issued legal-tender collector coins featuring foreign historical figures under licensing arrangements with European minting houses, primarily the Monnaie de Paris and private Swiss firms, as a straightforward revenue mechanism. These micro-gold pieces targeting the bullion gift market have proliferated across francophone Africa since the 2010s, bearing denominations that bear no relationship to domestic purchasing power.
Capone died in 1947, his fortune largely dissipated by tax evasion convictions that preceded his 1931 imprisonment — the IRS angle, not bootlegging, is what finished him.
