| Additional information |
Cameroon's modern bullion and collector program is operated through the Monnaie de Paris under licensing arrangements common to many Franc Zone states — the coins are legal tender in name, but neither struck nor circulated domestically. The centaur series falls squarely in this category: produced for the European collector market, with Cameroon's issuing authority functioning essentially as a licensing vehicle.
The 1000 Francs denomination has no meaningful relationship to Cameroonian purchasing power or the CFA Franc as actually used in commerce.
