Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse presents a highly detailed high-relief effigy of Jesus Christ crucified, rendered in .999 fine silver against the copper cross field. The figure of Christ is depicted with arms outstretched along the horizontal arms of the cross-shaped coin, with a draped loincloth about the waist and naturalistic musculature rendered with sculptural precision. The ornate cross features decorative trefoil terminals at each of its four arms, and the contrasting silver of the corpus against the rose-gold copper ground creates a striking bimetallic visual effect. The field is otherwise unlettered on this face.

Aanvullende informatie

Cameroon's high-denomination collector issues of the 2020s are produced under licensing arrangements typical of the Central African Economic and Monetary Community, where the issuing state lends its name but the coins are designed, struck, and distributed entirely by private European minting houses — in this case almost certainly the Prestige Numismatique network operating out of France. The BEAC, which governs the CFA franc zone, has no formal role in these releases, and the pieces never circulate domestically.

At 81 grams, the striking pressure required for a bimetallic of this diameter poses known alignment challenges between the silver plug and copper collar during the colleting process.
