Additional information

The Bank of Central African States serves six member nations simultaneously — Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, Gabon, Equatorial Guinea, and the Republic of the Congo — making any coin it issues nominally legal tender across a currency union that spans roughly five million square kilometers. This Unicorn issue belongs to a collector-focused bullion and commemorative program that BEAC launched in the early 2010s to generate hard currency revenue, a strategy common among smaller monetary unions with limited numismatic infrastructure of their own. The series was struck under contract rather than at any BEAC facility.
