| Beschrijving keerzijde | Three-dimensional sculptural reverse shaped as a stepped pyramid in the form of the Pyramid of Khafre at Giza, rendered in high relief with finely detailed ashlar stonework courses across all visible faces. The front face of the pyramid bears a large frontal effigy of the jackal-headed god Anubis in bold relief, depicted in traditional Egyptian regalia with a broad collar and ceremonial nemes headdress accented in gilded finish. Hieroglyphic inscriptions and cartouche panels fill the lower portions of the pyramid's face and flanking sides, enhancing the archaeological authenticity of the design. The overall composition is finished in an antique gold-tone treatment, imbuing the piece with a monumental, sculptural character consistent with its three-dimensional form. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Djibouti's monetary relationship with France, formalized through the CFA franc zone arrangements, kept the country's coinage largely functional and unambitious for decades after independence in 1977. Collector-oriented silver issues like this one reflect a broader shift among small African central banks toward numismatic revenue programs — an income stream that requires no tourism, no exports, and no industrial base.
The Pyramid of Khafre at Giza sits roughly 3,000 kilometers northwest of Djibouti's borders, making the subject geographically arbitrary — a choice driven by market appeal rather than national heritage.
