| Comments |
The Banque des États de l'Afrique Centrale issues a single note design across six member states — Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, Republic of Congo, Equatorial Guinea, and Gabon — distinguished only by a letter prefix in the serial number identifying the issuing country. The P#609C designation covers the 2002-dated series of this denomination, with the three signature combinations reflecting successive changes in the bank's directorate rather than any change in monetary policy or printing specification.
The rotating signature pairings are a reliable dating tool for specialists working within this series, as BEAC rarely published precise issue windows for individual signature combinations.
