100 Francs Olympic Games

Djibouti's numismatic output in the 1990s was almost entirely driven by third-party minting programs — this piece almost certainly produced by a European contractor, likely Monnaie de Paris, issuing coins that never meaningfully circulated in a country whose everyday commerce ran on the Djiboutian franc at far lower denominations. The 1994 Atlanta Games connection places it squarely in the wave of licensed Olympic silver issues that flooded the collector market that decade, most with mintages high enough to keep secondary market values modest.
