Additional information

This piece belongs to a peculiar modern numismatic genre — the large-diameter, near-weightless gold "coin" issued primarily as a collectible vehicle, where the gold content is almost incidental to the licensed intellectual property being sold. Senegal's BCEAO membership makes it a legally convenient issuer for such pieces, though the monetary connection to Dakar is nominal at best. The Polish national anthem, "Mazurek Dąbrowskiego," was written in 1797 by Józef Wybicki for the Polish Legions fighting under Napoleon in Italy — composed, notably, at a moment when Poland had ceased to exist as a state.
