Beschrijving keerzijde Central field features an elaborate high-relief depiction of Ganesh, the elephant-headed Hindu deity, seated in a frontal devotional posture on an ornate lotus throne. The four-armed figure holds ritual objects in his upper hands while his lower hands display the abhaya mudra gesture of protection and rest upon his lap. Ganesh is richly adorned with detailed jewellery, a crown, and draped garments rendered with fine sculptural precision. The composition is framed by ornate temple pillars with flame torches and smaller devotional figures flanking the deity, with a radiant halo behind the head. The legend GANESH appears in the lower exergue in bold Latin lettering, and the entire surface is gilded.

Aanvullende informatie

Cameroon's issuance of a Ganesh-themed coin is a product of the modern numismatic collector market rather than any domestic religious or cultural tradition — Hinduism has a negligible presence in Cameroon, and the subject was chosen entirely for export appeal to collectors in South Asia and the diaspora. These pieces are struck under license arrangements typical of the Central African CFA franc zone, where several member states mint collector issues with no intended domestic circulation, effectively licensing their sovereignty for foreign revenue.
