| Reverse description | The central field displays a full-color photographic-style illustration depicting an anthropomorphic chocolate Labrador Retriever dressed in a dark suit and tie, wearing a bowler hat, seated at a table strewn with stacks of banknotes in the manner of a wealthy banker or crime boss. The composition is rendered in a cinematic, dramatically lit style evoking a moody financial interior. The surrounding border is engraved with an intricate circuit-board pattern interspersed with paw print motifs, framing the colored insert. The series legend ANIMALS CATS & DOGS appears in stylized lettering along the lower border. |

| Additional information |
The Bank of Central African States serves six member nations — Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, Gabon, Equatorial Guinea, and the Republic of the Congo — whose monetary union dates to the post-colonial CFA franc arrangements of the 1970s. That institutional gravity makes this issue genuinely strange: a novelty "Mafia banker dog" collector piece sitting under the same issuing authority that manages monetary policy for roughly 60 million people. BEAC has increasingly licensed pop-culture and novelty themes to third-party distributors as a revenue mechanism, a practice common among smaller currency unions with limited numismatic infrastructure.
