| Comments |
The BCEAO's signature rotation on this series is unusually dense — the left signer represents the rotating national presidency of the union's Council of Ministers, which is why names change almost annually while Tiémoko Meyliet Koné's signature as Governor anchors the right field across nearly the entire 2012–2017 run. The 2011 pairing with José Mário Vaz is notable: he later became President of Guinea-Bissau from 2014 to 2020, making this note one of the few CFA issues signed by a future head of state.
The "S" suffix in the Pick reference designates the West African Economic and Monetary Union's common emission, distinct from any single member state's allocation.
