| Aanvullende informatie |
The Sud-Aviation SE-210 Caravelle was Europe's first successful short-to-medium-haul jet airliner, entering service with Air France in 1959 and fundamentally altering the economics of European air travel. Togo's issue of this piece in 2002 falls within the wave of thematic aviation coinage that proliferated across Francophone West African CFA states during the late 1990s and early 2000s — many struck by the same European minting contractors and sold almost entirely to collectors rather than ever touching Togolese commerce.
Air Afrique, the multinational carrier jointly operated by several CFA-zone nations including Togo, operated Caravelles through the 1960s and 1970s before the type was retired. The airline itself collapsed in 2002 — the same year this coin was issued.
