Aanvullende informatie

Equatorial Guinea gained independence from Spain on October 12, 1968, and almost immediately began issuing a series of gold commemoratives under the new Macias Nguema government — coins almost certainly never intended for domestic circulation. The Gandhi issue was part of that inaugural series, which honored a geographically and politically arbitrary roster of world figures. It was a revenue exercise aimed squarely at foreign collectors, not a statement of any diplomatic or ideological alignment with India.

Minted in 1969, just one year after independence, by a state that had no meaningful mint infrastructure of its own.
