| Reverse description | A central circular vignette, highlighted with applied green colour, depicts two children flying a kite in a rural landscape; one child runs in the foreground while the other holds the kite string, with the diamond-shaped kite soaring above and a mountain silhouette in the background. The legend AUF DEM LAND arcs along the upper left periphery and DRACHENSTEIGEN along the upper right, separated by dot ornaments. The date 2019 is split at either side of the central circle at mid-field, and the specification 1/2 G .9999 FINEST GOLD is inscribed along the lower periphery, flanked by dots. |

| Additional information |
Senegal issues coinage through the Banque Centrale des États de l'Afrique de l'Ouest, sharing the CFA franc with seven other West African nations under a currency union that has been pegged to the French franc — and since 1999, the euro — at a fixed rate. The 250 francs denomination exists almost exclusively as a collectible vehicle; no coin of this size and weight has ever seen meaningful circulation anywhere in the BCEAO zone.
