100 Francs CFA Leopard

The Ivory Coast has no independent mint and no tradition of circulating coinage at this denomination — these pieces were struck by foreign private mints, almost certainly in Europe, and sold directly into the collector market. They were never intended to circulate and never did. The "100 Francs CFA" face value is nominal; the actual CFA franc circulating in Côte d'Ivoire is managed by the BCEAO and issued through entirely separate channels.
