| Beschrijving keerzijde | A detailed reproduction of a section of the Beethoven Frieze, the monumental allegorical painting created by Austrian Symbolist artist Gustav Klimt in 1901 for the Vienna Secession exhibition. The design features Klimt's characteristic ornamental figures rendered in high relief against the mirror-polished field, incorporating sinuous female forms and elaborate decorative patterning. An inlaid amber insert appears at the left side of the composition, adding a distinctive translucent warm-toned element that enriches the artistic design. The artist's name GUSTAV KLIMT is inscribed in the field. The mint mark MW of the Mint of Poland appears on the reverse. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The "Beethoven Frieze" designation references Gustav Klimt's 1902 painting cycle of the same name, itself an interpretation of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony created for the 14th Vienna Secession exhibition. Cameroon has no meaningful connection to either Beethoven or Klimt — this is a frankly commercial issue produced for the European collector market, almost certainly struck by a contracted European mint operating under a licensing arrangement with Cameroonian monetary authorities.
The amber insert references the warm ochre tones dominant in Klimt's original frieze panels, which still hang in the Secession building in Vienna.
