| Additional information |
Burundi's central bank has issued oversized silver pieces in this weight class before, typically timed to international numismatic trade shows where such productions attract wholesale buyers. The selective gilding on issues of this format is almost always applied by a contracted European mint — Burundi has no domestic minting facility and historically has commissioned production through partners in Belgium, Germany, or Switzerland.
The springbok is native to southern Africa, not Burundi. Its appearance here is a commercial decision, not a zoological or national one.
