The BCEAO's 1000 Franc series ran across nearly a decade and accumulated an unusually large number of signature combinations — eleven in total for this type alone. Abdoulaye Fadiga served as Governor of the BCEAO from 1975 to 1988, which accounts for his presence across the majority of pairings. Alassane Ouattara, who signed the final combinations here as Governor before departing for the IMF, would later become President of Côte d'Ivoire.
The suffix letter K in the Pick reference identifies the specific signature variant within the broader series, making precise attribution to a signing period essential for accurate cataloging.
