| Beschrijving keerzijde | A right-facing bust portrait of the Polish composer Frédéric François Chopin occupies the right portion of the field, rendered in fine relief with period-appropriate attire including a high collar and cravat. To the left of the portrait appears Chopin's facsimile signature in cursive script accompanied by his birth and death dates 1810-1849. The legend FRÉDÉRIC FRANÇOIS CHOPIN arcs along the upper and left periphery, and the issue year 2007 is inscribed along the lower right border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
This piece belongs to a wave of small-format gold issues that several West African CFA franc states licensed to European minting houses in the 2000s — coins legally denominated in CFA francs but designed, struck, and sold entirely to the collector market abroad, never intended to circulate in Abidjan or anywhere else. The Ivory Coast had no meaningful role in the creative or production decisions. Pobjoy Mint struck many of these issues under licensing arrangements.
Chopin died in 1849, a Polish national who spent much of his adult life in Paris — his connection to Francophone West Africa begins and ends with this coin's denomination.
