    The Cameroon 1000 Francs “The Karaim Kenesa of Little Jerusalem” silver coin, issued in 2017, is a refined architectural and cultural tribute to one of the most distinctive religious monuments of the Crimean Karaite heritage. With a denomination of 1000 francs CFA, this rectangular silver coin captures the spiritual atmosphere and historical significance of the Karaim Kenesa complex, often referred to as “Little Jerusalem” for its concentration of sacred sites.

    The reverse presents a detailed interior view of the kenesa. A symmetrical hall unfolds with rows of elegant columns supporting graceful arches, creating a strong sense of depth and perspective. At the center stands a raised podium with a lectern, above which a gilded bird figure is positioned, symbolizing spiritual elevation and divine presence. The tiled floor, architectural moldings, and arched openings are rendered with precise engraving, emphasizing harmony and solemnity. Inscriptions indicate the denomination, issuing country, and year 2017.

    The obverse features an ornate ceremonial façade with decorative columns, sculpted reliefs, and golden accents. Two stone tablets with inscriptions flank the central composition, while radiant ornamental rays and a crowned emblem add symbolic weight and visual richness. The title identifying the Karaim Kenesa and its historical context is placed prominently within the design.

    Struck in silver with Proof quality, this coin is a remarkable piece for collectors interested in religious architecture, cultural history, and finely executed modern world issues.
