| Additional information |
The Bank of Central African States issues commemorative pieces outside its circulating mandate through arrangements with private minting intermediaries — this is one of those issues, bearing no relationship to the CFA franc coins that actually move through the economies of Cameroon, Chad, or the Republic of the Congo. The "Kek" branding places it squarely in the novelty bullion market, produced for collectors rather than member-state central banks.
Five troy ounces of .999 silver at 41 mm is a physical contradiction — that diameter is undersized for the weight, suggesting a thick, stubby flan well outside anything the BEAC has ever put into circulation.
