| Obverse description | The obverse displays the national coat of arms of Guinea centrally in the field, featuring a shield with a dove and olive branch motif, rendered in relief against a polished background. The circular legend reads '* REPUBLIQUE DE GUINÉE *' along the upper periphery, with the denomination '1000 FRANCS GUINÉENS' inscribed along the lower border. The design is executed in a formal heraldic style consistent with Guinea's official state symbolism. |

| Additional information |
Issued under Guinea's ongoing relationship with the European bullion coin market, this piece belongs to a series produced primarily for German collectors, where the Luther Rose carries particular cultural weight tied to the Protestant Reformation's 500th anniversary in 2017. The commemorative program was coordinated through European distributors rather than circulated domestically — Guinea's monetary authority serves here largely as a nominal issuing body for a product designed and marketed abroad.
