| Additional information |
The BCEAO, which issues currency across eight West African nations bound by the CFA franc zone, produces relatively few collector-grade silver pieces — this 2002 issue being among them. The CFA franc itself has been pegged to the French franc since 1948 and subsequently to the euro, a monetary arrangement that has generated persistent political debate about French influence over former colonies.
