| Additional information |
Issued under the Central African CFA franc zone, the Republic of the Congo has periodically used its minting authority to produce small-denomination gold pieces aimed squarely at the collector market rather than circulation — this being one of the lightest gold issues in the modern CFA series. The biblical commandment referenced in the title is the fifth of the Ten Commandments as numbered in Catholic and Lutheran tradition, fourth in Reformed reckoning.
