| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse depicts a dramatic scene of multiple meteorite fragments of varying sizes scattered across a dark, deep-space field, their craggy, pitted surfaces rendered in high relief. A genuine inlaid fragment of a Vesta meteorite is set prominently in the upper central field, distinguishable by its pale, textured surface against the gold ground. The curved legend VESTA METEORITE arcs along the upper portion of the field, and the date 2017 appears in the exergue along the lower periphery. The composition conveys a sense of cosmic depth, with the contrast between the inlaid meteoritic material and the polished gold field serving as the principal artistic focus. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Vesta meteorite fragments referenced on this issue originate from 4 Vesta, the second-largest body in the asteroid belt, confirmed as the source of the HED meteorite group following orbital data collected by NASA's Dawn spacecraft between 2011 and 2012. Chad has no particular connection to either the meteorite or the mission — the country functions here purely as a licensing issuer, one of several African states that monetize their sovereign minting rights through third-party distributors producing collector pieces with no circulation intent.
