| Additional information |
This piece belongs to a wave of sub-Saharan CFA-denominated gold issues that flooded the numismatic market in the mid-2010s, produced not for domestic circulation but exclusively for foreign collector sales. Senegal, like several other UEMOA member states, licensed its name and currency denomination to private minting operations — most traceable to European mints working on commission — with no meaningful involvement from the Banque Centrale des États de l'Afrique de l'Ouest in the coin's concept or distribution.
The Washington theme has no connection to Senegalese history or monetary policy.
