| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a richly colored digital-print design commemorating the Chinese Lunar New Year of the Rooster. A large, vividly rendered rooster with red comb and elaborately detailed plumage is depicted striding leftward, pulling a red spherical pram on spoked wheels containing the twelve animals of the Chinese zodiac. A white picket fence and snow-covered ground establish a wintry setting, with a snowflake motif in the upper right field. The legend YEAR OF THE ROOSTER is inscribed in cursive script along the upper border, and the date 2017 appears in the lower right field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Bank of Central African States — the BEAC — issues these lunar series coins almost entirely for the collector export market. The six member states (Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, Congo, Equatorial Guinea, and Gabon) nominally back the currency, but pieces like this never circulate domestically. The CFA franc itself remains pegged to the euro at 655.957 francs, a fixed rate set in 1999 when the euro replaced the French franc as the anchor currency.
The rooster holds particular resonance given France's Gallic cockerel iconography — whether intentional or coincidental in the design brief is unrecorded.
