| Beschrijving voorzijde | The Gabonese national coat of arms is depicted centrally in the field, featuring a quartered escutcheon with three roundels in the upper section and a sailing ship in the lower section, supported by two confronted black panthers rampant. Above the shield, a stylized okoume tree flanked by olive branches serves as a crest, while a scroll at the base bears the national motto UNION JUSTICE TRAVAIL and a central banner inscribed TRAVAIL. The legend REPUBLIQUE GABONAISE arcs along the upper periphery in Latin characters, and the denomination 1000 FRANCS CFA is inscribed along the lower rim. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
This piece belongs to a broader genre of African-issued art coins produced not for domestic circulation but almost entirely for the European collector market — a trade that accelerated sharply after 2010 as mint contractors sought new licensing arrangements with smaller francophone nations. Gabon's participation in these programs is purely commercial; the CFA franc itself is managed by the Banque des États de l'Afrique Centrale, and Gabon exercises no independent monetary policy that would motivate a domestic commemorative program of this kind.
The Van Gogh licensing angle is the commercial engine here. Painted in Auvers-sur-Oise in July 1890, within weeks of the artist's death.
