A gecko crossing the two sides of the coin, there is a world it leaves and one it enters , which symbolically represents the before and the after, a finish line as a new beginning, a transition between two worlds, one prerequisite for the other. The gecko harbors curiosity and the urge to improve, the world it left behind was dotted with flat geometric figures suggesting an ordered and essential universe, the future in a new world that is opening up becomes bodies of a platonic matrix animated, complex and at the same time compelling like the challenges that loom on the horizon.
The reverse: of this wonderful coin depicts a gecko crossing the two sides of the coin, intending to represent symbolically a transition, a finish line between an ending phase and the following new beginning. Around the figure of the gecko there are circular lines recalling the idea of water rings on the surface of this metaphoric dimension, with also regular geometric 3D shapes.
The obverse: of the coin shows the back of the gecko leaving this final 2D dimension and around the obverse, the inscriptions: “REPUBLIQUE DU CAMEROUN”, the issuing country, “1000 FRANCS CFA” – the face value, “1 OZ 9999 ARGENT PUR” – the weight and the fineness of the pure Silver and “2023” – the year of issue.
Packaging
The coin comes in a domed capsule which is held in place along with the coa in a plastic show stand, this arrives inside a cardboard sleeve which is extremelly tight around the stand and the stand needs to be carefully pushed out of either end so as to avoid ripping the cardboard, alternatively you can try to just open the cardboard at the seam on the side but this might rip & you might need to dap some glue on it should you want to seal the stand inside the cardboard again.Once the Floating stand is out you can attach the 2 feet to it to stand it up or if you want to open the stand and carefully take the coin in its capsule out there is a thumb button on the bottom of the stand which you can lightly press in to flip the top up, please be careful especially with the cardboard sleeve!

I’ve had this coin for a couple weeks now and still get mesmerised looking at it. Stunning design, the mirror finish creates an almost infinite spiral of particles, the detail is spectacular
