| Obverse description | The central field features a coloured composite panorama of iconic American landmarks, including Mount Rushmore, the Golden Gate Bridge, the Las Vegas Strip, and various city skyline elements, rendered in full colour. Below the landmark scene, the Chadian coat of arms is depicted at centre, flanked to the left by the legend REPUBLIQUE DU TCHAD and the date 2022, and to the right by the denomination 500 FRANCS CFA. The upper field bears the inscription UNITED STATES OF AMERICA in two lines, and below the coat of arms the text 6 grams .999 Fine Silver appears in the lower field. The coin's scalloped border replicates the crimped edge of a bottle cap. |

| Additional information |
Chad's CFA franc is issued under the Central African CFA franc zone, administered by the BEAC, meaning Chad has no independent monetary authority to authorize coinage — commemorative issues like this one are licensed through private minting arrangements, typically with the Bavarian State Mint or similar European contractors, and bear only nominal issuing-country status. The "USA Bottle Cap" theme places this squarely in the novelty bullion collector market rather than any circulating or historically grounded series.
