| Additional information |
Ivory Coast has no independent monetary authority — it issues coins through the BCEAO, the West African central bank governing the eight-nation CFA franc zone, which means these pieces are legal tender in name but exist almost entirely for the international bullion and numismatic export market. The selective rhodium finish is an electroplating technique applied post-strike to isolate design elements in contrasting white against the gold field.
