Additional information

Ivory Coast has issued commemorative gold pieces under the CFA franc umbrella since the early 2000s, though the legal tender status of these collector issues within ECOWAS monetary union territory is largely nominal — they are produced for the international numismatic market, not domestic circulation. The Nefertari series draws on Egyptian subject matter that has no particular historical connection to Côte d'Ivoire itself, a common practice among West African states licensing exotic themes to European minting houses to maximize collector appeal.

At 0.5 grams of .999 gold, the actual bullion content is negligible. These pieces trade almost entirely on novelty.
