Additional information

Cameroon's numismatic output since the 1990s has been almost entirely the work of European licensing firms — chiefly the Scottsdale Mint and various intermediaries working through the Central African CFA franc issuing authority — producing themed collector pieces with little connection to domestic monetary circulation. This rooster issue is one of dozens of lunar-themed coins struck under similar arrangements across multiple African CFA nations simultaneously, often sharing identical specifications and differing only in the issuing country's name.

The coins are legal tender in name only. None circulate.
