| Reverse description | The central design features two overlapping globe hemispheres rendered in a grid pattern, displaying the continents of the world in a symmetrical composition. Above the globes, a smaller globe encircled by a ring of stars serves as a unifying emblem, with the legend UNIFIED NATIONS arcing boldly across the upper field. In the lower portion of the field, a shooting star with a trailing arc and scattered smaller stars sweeps dynamically across the polished ground. The issuer name SENEGAL and the date 2020-06-22 are inscribed along the lower left, while the fineness and weight specification 1/2 G .9999 FINEST GOLD appears along the lower right. |

| Additional information |
Senegal is a member of the West African Economic and Monetary Union, whose common currency — the CFA franc — is issued by the BCEAO and pegged to the euro. Individual member states have no independent monetary authority, which makes this piece a legal-tender curiosity: nominally denominated in a currency Senegal neither controls nor mints, struck in gold for a collector market that has nothing to do with West African commerce.
