| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central design features a large termite mound or anthill rising prominently from a lush ground of tropical vegetation, including grasses, reeds, and flowering plants rendered in fine detail. The national coat of arms of Gabon is displayed at the top of the design, flanked by two stars and surmounting the central motif. The same paired orb-and-tassel decorative elements seen on the obverse appear symmetrically on either side of the field, framing the composition. A mint mark appears to the left of the central design. The denomination FRANCS 1000 FRANCS is inscribed in bold lettering along the lower exergual arc, with dotted borders at each side. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued to mark the first anniversary of Omar Bongo's presidency, this coin was produced shortly after Bongo — then 33 years old — succeeded Léon M'ba following the latter's death in November 1967. Bongo had already converted Gabon's political structure into a single-party state by 1968, and the commemorative coinage program that followed was partly a calculated exercise in legitimizing the new administration through the prestige of gold currency.
France's Monnaie de Paris struck the issue under the close monetary relationship Gabon maintained through the CFA franc zone.
