Aversbeschreibung The national coat of arms of Togo occupies the central field, depicting two lions rampant as supporters flanking a shield bearing the initials 'RT' (République Togolaise), surmounted by two crossed national flags each bearing a star. Three scrolled banners inscribed with the national motto 'TRAVAIL', 'LIBERTE', and 'PATRIE' appear above the shield. The circular legend 'REPUBLIQUE TOGOLAISE' runs along the upper rim, while the denomination '1500 FRANCS CFA' is inscribed along the lower rim. The entire design is bordered by a decorative denticled inner ring.

Reversbeschreibung A highly detailed Chinese-style dragon with finely rendered scales coils in a sweeping spiral around the central field, its fierce head with open jaws, horns, and whiskers depicted at the left. A genuine amber gemstone insert is set into the coin's center, encircled by the dragon's body and representing the mythical pearl or flaming jewel traditionally associated with the dragon motif. Floral and cloud elements fill the lower field, with decorative scroll motifs in the lower corners. The legend 'ANNÉE DU DRAGON' arcs along the upper rim, and the date '2012' appears in the lower exergue. The reverse carries a distinctive antiqued finish that enhances the sculptural relief of the design.

Zusätzliche Informationen

Togo's coinage authority has issued prolifically through the Paris-based Monnaie de Paris and various private minting houses, producing collector-targeted issues under licensing arrangements that give the West African nation nominal issuing authority while the actual commercial decisions rest elsewhere. This dragon piece is part of that wave of themed bullion and numismatic products that expanded sharply after 2008 as silver spot prices rose and collector demand for two-troy-ounce issues grew.

The 1500 CFA franc denomination has no meaningful relationship to face value in circulation — at 2012 silver prices, the metal content alone exceeded 100 times the stated denomination.
