1500 Francs CFA Mozart

Togo's 1500 Francs CFA series from the mid-2000s was part of a broader wave of small-format gold commemoratives produced by the Monnaie de Paris for Francophone African states — nations that retained monetary ties to France through the CFA franc system but had negligible domestic minting infrastructure. The Mozart issue appeared in 2006, the 250th anniversary of his birth, a milestone that generated commemorative output from dozens of mints worldwide, making Togo's contribution one of the more obscure entries in that crowded field.
