| Beschrijving keerzijde | The copper-colored inner disc bears a boldly rendered depiction of a tropical fish in profile, facing left, with detailed fin and scale engraving visible across the dorsal surface. The fish occupies the majority of the inner field, with the gilt outer ring framing the design. The reverse is otherwise devoid of inscriptions or additional devices, placing full visual emphasis on the naturalistic marine motif. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Corisco is a small island off the coast of Equatorial Guinea with a history far more tangled than its size suggests — it was formally ceded to Spain in 1843 under treaty with local Benga chiefs, and remained a minor administrative footnote through the colonial period. The island gives its name to this issue, part of Equatorial Guinea's recurring practice of producing large-format bimetallic pieces aimed squarely at the collector market rather than circulation, a revenue strategy the country has pursued aggressively since the 1990s.
