| Additional information |
The Bank of Central African States — the BEAC — issues coinage on behalf of six member nations: Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, Republic of the Congo, Equatorial Guinea, and Gabon. This piece is one of several wildlife-themed issues the BEAC has produced targeting the collector market rather than circulation, a strategy common among African monetary unions seeking hard currency revenue. The "Tiger Hunt III" designation implies a numbered series, though tigers are not native to any BEAC member territory — the subject is purely commercial.
