Interesting fact
The 1000 Francs CFA coin from Togo, issued in 2001 to commemorate the 1938 World Cup held in France, has a unique feature. The coin's obverse side features a portrait of a soccer player in action, while the reverse side depicts the map of Togo with the words "Togo - 1000 Francs CFA" inscribed above it. This coin is made of silver (.999) and weighs 19.9100 grams. It's a non-circulating coin, meaning it's not meant to be used as regular currency, but rather as a collector's item.
