| Aanvullende informatie |
Guinea-Bissau's coinage program in the early 1990s was largely driven by foreign mint contracts targeting the collector market rather than domestic circulation — the country's actual monetary needs were met through the West African CFA franc, which had replaced the peso as the functional currency for most transactions. This piece is effectively a bullion-adjacent commemorative with no circulation history.
The Passat was a type of two-masted cargo vessel common to Atlantic trade routes from the 16th through 19th centuries — the name itself is German for "trade wind."
