| Additional information |
Equatorial Guinea is a CFA franc zone member through the BEAC (Banque des États de l'Afrique Centrale), yet the country has a long history of issuing collector coins — many featuring wildlife entirely absent from its territory — through contracted minting programs aimed squarely at the numismatic market rather than circulation. This piece falls squarely in that category.
