| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse features a highly detailed, polychrome colored depiction of a Charaxes fournierae butterfly rendered in vivid orange, black, and gold tones, its wings spread across the central field and partially extending beyond the coin's edge in three-dimensional relief. The butterfly rests upon a stylized floral motif with green-colored petals radiating outward. A small engraved butterfly vignette appears at the right of the series legend. The curved inscription PAPILLONS EXOTIQUES arcs along the upper portion of the field, and the species name CHARAXES FOURNIERAE together with the year 2011 appears in the lower field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Bank of Central African States issues coinage on behalf of six member nations simultaneously — Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, Republic of the Congo, Equatorial Guinea, and Gabon — which means this piece carries legal tender status across a currency union spanning over three million square kilometers. The BEAC's commemorative program, launched in the mid-2000s, leaned heavily into regional biodiversity subjects at a time when international collector demand for African wildlife silver was peaking.
Charaxes fournierae is a brushfoot butterfly endemic to Central Africa, named for the entomologist Fournier. Few collector pieces in this series have generated meaningful secondary market depth.
