| Additional information |
Ghana's 5 Cedis bullion and commemorative program expanded sharply in the 2010s as the Bank of Ghana moved to capture collector revenue from the international numismatic market — a strategy common among smaller sovereign issuers working with European minting houses, in this case almost certainly struck by a contracted facility rather than the Ghana Mint itself. The "Earth" designation places this within a thematic series rather than a domestic monetary program.
KM#164 is a catalog assignment, not evidence of deep indigenous coinage tradition behind the issue.
