| Additional information |
Equatorial Guinea's relationship with the CFA franc has always been anomalous — the country joined the Central African Economic and Monetary Community in 1985, making it the only member whose colonial currency was the Spanish peseta rather than the French franc. This rhinoceros issue is part of a broader series of wildlife-themed silver pieces produced through the early 1990s that were minted almost entirely for the collector export market, with negligible circulation within the country itself.
