| Beschrijving keerzijde | A full-colour reproduction of Vincent van Gogh's painting 'The Bank of the Oise at Auvers' (1890) fills the field, depicting figures in a riverboat amid lush green foliage rendered in Van Gogh's characteristic post-impressionist brushwork. Superimposed in the lower left foreground is a high-relief silver effigy of Van Gogh shown as a bearded artist wearing a broad-brimmed hat, seated before an easel. The artist's name 'Vincent Van Gogh' appears in raised lettering along the right side of the field, his life dates '1853-1890' are inscribed near the upper right, and the date '2017' appears at the lower left beneath the portrait. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Gabon's membership in the BEAC monetary zone means it issues the Central African CFA franc — a currency pegged to the euro and backed by the French Treasury. That institutional arrangement makes a coin like this a curiosity: a legal tender piece from a sovereign state whose monetary policy it does not actually control. The "Bank of Oise in Auvers" subject is a Van Gogh painting, one of roughly 80 canvases he completed in the final 70 days of his life in Auvers-sur-Oise in 1890.
These silver-plated issues are produced specifically for the collector market, not BEAC circulation.
