1000 Francs CFA Capricorn

Gabon issues coins through the Banque des États de l'Afrique Centrale, the common central bank for the six-member CEMAC zone, which means this piece carries national branding while having no practical relationship to Gabonese monetary policy. The collector market for CEMAC-zone zodiac issues is driven almost entirely by European and Asian buyers — these coins never circulated in Libreville or anywhere else.
