Additional information

Chad's "Golden Football" issues are novelty bullion pieces produced under licensing arrangements common among several Franc CFA states — the coins are legal tender in name, but exist entirely for the collector market and are never intended to circulate. At 0.031 grams of .999 gold, the actual metal content is negligible, placing these firmly in the category of gold-plated or micro-gold promotional coinage rather than conventional bullion.
