| Additional information |
The "Yupik" designation places this coin within a broader Congo gold series that licensed indigenous cultural imagery — a practice the Republic of the Congo pursued aggressively through private mint partnerships in the 2010s to generate hard currency from collector markets rather than domestic circulation. These issues were never intended to pass hands in Brazzaville.
