| Obverse description | The national coat of arms of Gabon is depicted centrally in the field, featuring a quartered shield supported by two black panthers rampant, with an okoumé tree rising above the shield. The shield displays a ship on the lower quarter and three golden discs on the upper, with a ribbon below bearing the national motto 'UNION JUSTICE TRAVAIL'. The legend 'RÉPUBLIQUE GABONAISE' arcs along the upper periphery in raised Latin letters, while the denomination '1000 FRANCS CFA' is inscribed along the lower border. |

| Additional information |
Gabon issues collector coins under the Banque des États de l'Afrique Centrale framework, which pools monetary authority across six Central African states. These silver-plated copper issues are produced almost exclusively for the European and Asian novelty collector market — they do not circulate in Gabon and are rarely encountered there at all.
