| Additional information |
Chad's fiscal relationship with the CFA franc is administered through the Bank of Central African States, which does not authorize collector coinage — these pieces are instead issued under licensing arrangements with private minting intermediaries, a practice that has drawn criticism from currency purists but has produced some of the more technically ambitious struck pieces to come out of francophone Africa. The Kraken series falls squarely in that category: a high-relief, large-format silver issue aimed entirely at the bullion collector market rather than domestic circulation.
At 155.5 grams of .999 silver, no piece of this denomination ever changed hands in N'Djamena.
