| Aanvullende informatie |
The Hanging Gardens of Babylon have never been archaeologically confirmed — no physical remains have been identified, and some scholars argue the site was Nineveh, not Babylon entirely. This coin rides a long tradition of issuing fractional gold pieces themed around the Seven Wonders, a format the BCEAO has used to generate collector revenue rather than circulating currency. West African franc members have no historical or geographic connection to ancient Mesopotamia; the subject is purely commercial.
