1500 Francs Zeus

Togo's early 2000s gold miniature series was produced under the authority of the West African CFA franc zone, though Togo itself exercises no independent monetary policy — these coins are collector issues in the fullest sense, never intended for circulation. The legal tender designation is nominal, underwritten by the issuing framework of the Banque Centrale des États de l'Afrique de l'Ouest.

One-gram gold pieces of this diameter were a format pushed aggressively into the collector market by European minting contractors during this period, with several CFA-zone nations lending their names to near-identical series.
