| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse features a full-color photographic-style depiction of the LZ 129 Hindenburg airship in flight, shown in three-quarter profile against a colorized cityscape background with a silver-toned sky. The registration marking D-LZ129 is visible on the airship's hull, along with the Hindenburg name lettered along its side. The inscription LZ 129 Hindenburg 2017 arcs along the upper border, while TRANSATLANTIC PASSENGER SERVICE appears in the lower field, and the series title World's Most Famous Airships is inscribed along the bottom edge of the oval frame. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Burkina Faso has no meaningful connection to the Hindenburg, and this piece makes no pretense otherwise. It belongs to a class of licensed commemorative issues produced for the collector market under arrangements between foreign mints — typically European — and francophone African nations whose monetary authority lends nominal issuing status. The LZ 129 itself completed 63 transatlantic crossings before the May 1937 fire at Lakehurst killed 36 of the 97 aboard, a disaster that effectively ended rigid airship passenger service within two years.
