| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a full-length standing figure of Liberty, rendered in the style of the American Gold Eagle design, advancing forward while holding a torch aloft in her right hand and an olive branch in her left, with radiate sunburst lines emanating from behind the figure. A color-printed circular inset to the right of Liberty displays the flag of the United States of America. The upper legend BULLION COINS OF THE WORLD arcs along the rim, the date 2021 appears in the left field, and the purity inscription 999 FINE GOLD is positioned in the lower exergue. |

| Additional information |
A 40mm coin weighing 0.16 grams of gold is, physically, an anomaly — the metal value is negligible, and this is effectively a gold-plated collector disc issued under the BEAC umbrella. The Bank of Central African States serves six member nations of the CEMAC zone, and these small-denomination high-face-value collector pieces are routinely licensed to private mints rather than struck at any sovereign facility.
