| 裏面の説明 | High-relief depiction of the Sphinx rendered as a winged, helmeted female figure with the body of a lioness, shown in a reclining pose facing left. The creature holds a selectively gilt human skull in her right forepaw, rendered with striking contrast against the antique-finished silver field. Large, intricately detailed feathered wings rise dramatically behind her, and she wears ornate jewelry including a necklace and earrings. A decorative Greek meander pattern forms the background, while the border features a continuous ring of stylized eyes. The inscription 'SPHINX' is engraved vertically along the left field. |

Cameroon has no meaningful numismatic tradition of its own regarding the sphinx — this is a coin issued under licensing arrangements typical of the modern "world mint" industry, where sovereign names are leased to private minting companies (primarily European) to produce collectibles with no intended circulation. The Republic of Cameroon has appeared on hundreds of such issues since the 2010s, its name functioning essentially as a legal vehicle.
KM#692 places this within a catalog sequence that has expanded rapidly as collector-market themed issues multiplied. The selective gilding technique used here was pioneered commercially in the 1990s and remains a standard finishing option for the bullion novelty market.
