| Beschrijving voorzijde | A highly detailed ultra-high relief depiction of a grizzly bear in full attack, its jaws open and claws extended as it subdues a stag amid dense woodland foliage. The composition fills the entire field with dramatic naturalistic detail, including gnarled branches and undergrowth rendered in deep sculptural relief. In the upper right quadrant, an incuse medallion bears the national coat of arms of Côte d'Ivoire, surrounded by the circular legend and the denomination. The antique finish enhances the depth and texture of the scene throughout. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | An imposing close-up portrait of a roaring grizzly bear rendered in ultra-high relief, occupying the majority of the field with extraordinary sculptural depth. The bear's open maw, bared teeth, and dense fur are meticulously detailed, conveying raw power and ferocity. A background of snow-dusted conifers and rocky terrain frames the subject. The series title legend arcs along the upper rim, the denomination weight and fineness appear vertically along the left, the date is inscribed at the base, and the engraver's signature appears in the right field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The "Grizzly" branding on West African CFA franc issues has drawn persistent scrutiny from collectors — grizzly bears have no geographic or cultural connection to Côte d'Ivoire, and these coins are produced almost exclusively for the European bullion and novelty market rather than domestic circulation. The Ivory Coast has been a recurring issuer of such pieces since the 2010s, lending its monetary authority to designs commissioned by external distributors, a practice the BCEAO has never formally discouraged.
At 93.3g of .999 silver, the piece sits in the oversized bullion-medal category that dominates this issuer's output.
