    The Cameroon 1000 Francs “Two Cross River Gorilla” silver coin, issued in 2012, is a powerful wildlife tribute dedicated to one of the rarest and most endangered great ape subspecies on Earth. With a denomination of 1000 francs CFA, this coin highlights the majesty, intelligence, and fragile existence of the Cross River gorilla, native to the forested border regions of Cameroon and Nigeria.

    The reverse depicts two Cross River gorillas seated together in their natural habitat. The scene is rendered in high-relief silver, capturing muscular anatomy, expressive faces, and dense fur texture with remarkable realism. Behind them, a rugged forested landscape with rocky formations and trees adds depth and environmental context. One gorilla rests calmly while the other gestures subtly, creating a sense of social interaction and family structure. The inscription “Cross-River Gorilla” arches above the scene, with the year 2012 positioned below.

    The obverse features the national coat of arms of Cameroon, centered on a polished field. The shield with balanced scales symbolizes justice, flanked by crossed fasces and banners bearing national mottos. Surrounding inscriptions identify the Republic of Cameroon and the denomination of 1000 francs CFA.

    Struck in silver with Proof quality, this coin combines artistic excellence with an important conservation message. A compelling addition for collectors of wildlife, endangered species, and African-themed modern silver coinage.
