| Reversbeschreibung | The reverse presents a richly colored enamel scene depicting the heliocentric solar system, with a radiant sun rendered in vivid orange and yellow tones dominating the left field, alongside a detailed full-color image of Earth and other celestial bodies with inset meteorite fragments. Against this cosmic backdrop, a finely detailed antique-finish relief bust of Nicolaus Copernicus occupies the right portion of the field, depicted in three-quarter view with shoulder-length curly hair and a fur-trimmed collar. The date '2016' appears in the lower left field, and the legend 'THE HELIOCENTRIC THEORY' is inscribed along a curved banner at the lower right. The purity and weight designation '1OZ AG999' is incorporated into the reverse design. |

Burkina Faso has issued commemorative silver under the CFA framework since the 1990s, typically through arrangements with European minting houses — this piece was almost certainly produced by a private mint on contract, as the country has no domestic minting facility. Copernicus appears here under a long tradition of African commemorative programs licensing European scientific and historical figures, a commercial niche that has little to do with the issuing nation's own history.
Copernicus completed the manuscript of De revolutionibus orbium coelestium around 1532 but withheld it from publication for over a decade, reportedly fearing ecclesiastical backlash. The first printed copies reached him on the day he died, May 24, 1543.
