| Additional information |
Niger has no native coyote population — the animal is endemic to North America. This coin belongs to a wave of wildlife-themed issues produced by African nations in the early 2010s almost entirely for the collector export market, with no meaningful domestic circulation intended. The issuing authority is nominal; these were typically contracted through European minting intermediaries targeting thematic bullion collectors.
