Interesting fact

The 100 Francs CFA (Christ the Redeemer) 2015 gold coin from the Republic of the Congo features an image of Christ the Redeemer, a famous statue located in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, on its obverse side. This coin's design is unique because it is not a common theme on African coins. Usually, coins from African countries feature images of animals, leaders, or cultural symbols. The choice of the Christ the Redeemer image on this coin is an interesting fact, as it shows diversity in coin design and highlights the cultural connections between different parts of the world.
