| Additional information |
Ivory Coast's "Save the Ocean" issues fall within a genre of CFA-denominated gold miniatures produced largely for the collector market by European minting houses under licensing arrangements — the coins have no meaningful circulation history in Côte d'Ivoire itself. The 0.5g format was popularized in the 2010s as an entry-level bullion product, keeping spot-adjacent pricing accessible while technically qualifying as legal tender of a sovereign state.
