Reversbeschreibung Archangel Michael is depicted in dynamic pose at centre, raising a sword aloft in his right hand and grasping chains in his left hand as he vanquishes a dragon beneath him. The composition draws on traditional Christian iconography of the Archangel as heavenly warrior and defeater of Satan. The legend THE WHORE OF BABYLON is inscribed on the reverse, referencing the apocalyptic imagery of the Book of Revelation. The design is rendered with fine detail in high relief, consistent with the antique finish striking of this collector issue.

Zusätzliche Informationen

The Bank of Central African States issues currency on behalf of six member nations — Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, Republic of the Congo, Equatorial Guinea, and Gabon — all sharing the CFA franc under a monetary union whose fixed peg to the euro traces back to the original franc zone arrangements with France. This coin is a collector issue rather than circulating currency; BEAC has increasingly issued high-specification commemoratives since the 2010s, often through third-party minting arrangements with European facilities, as none of the member states operate a mint capable of producing work at this specification.

The selective gilding technique applied here involves masking portions of the planchet before gold plating, a finishing process associated most closely with the Polish Mint and B.H. Mayer's Kunstprägeanstalt in Munich, though attribution of the actual striking facility for this specific KM# remains unconfirmed in major references.
