Additional information

The Republic of the Congo has no meaningful historical or geographic connection to Tower Bridge, which was completed in London in 1894. This coin exists entirely because the CFA franc zone countries — particularly the Republic of the Congo — have become reliable vehicles for the European commemorative coin market, issuing collector pieces with no domestic circulation intended. The actual monetary authority, the BEAC, effectively licenses the issuing rights while European distributors commission the designs and absorb the production costs.
