| Beschrijving keerzijde | A highly detailed, icon-inspired frontal effigy of the Virgin Mary dominates the central field, her face rendered with serene, Byzantine-style features beneath an ornate veil and a jewelled crown adorned with fleur-de-lis motifs and a central star. Two adoring angels in prayer flank the figure at either side within an elaborate decorative border of intertwined oak leaves, grapevines, and floral ornaments. A scrolled legend reading 'Sancta Maria Mater Dei' arcs across the lower portion of the central design in cursive script, with the Roman numeral date 'MMXV' inscribed in the exergue below. The fineness mark '1OZ AG999' appears vertically along the right inner border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Burkina Faso has issued commemorative coinage through the Monnaie de Paris and affiliated private minting operations since gaining independence in 1960, but much of the modern collector output — including figurine and shaped coin series — originates with European bullion distributors licensing the country's issuing authority rather than any domestic monetary need. The CFA franc itself is managed by the BCEAO, the regional central bank for eight West African states, meaning Burkina Faso exercises no independent monetary policy over the currency it nominally issues on these pieces.
KM#37 places this within a documented series, though collector demand drives production entirely.
