    The Cameroon 1000 Francs CFA silver coin, 2011, featuring the Charaxes Fournierae butterfly, is a refined celebration of exotic African fauna and contemporary mint artistry. Issued by the Republic of Cameroon, this proof-quality silver coin combines high-relief engraving with vivid color application, creating a striking visual contrast between polished metal and natural hues.

    The reverse is dominated by a colorized Charaxes Fournierae butterfly shown with wings fully spread in a symmetrical, lifelike pose. The wings display deep red and orange tones with darker brown and black edging, dotted markings, and clearly defined veins that emphasize realism. Beneath the butterfly lies a lush green floral composition, with layered leaves radiating outward from a central bloom, symbolizing vitality and biodiversity. Along the upper rim, the inscription “PAPILLONS EXOTIQUES” appears, accompanied by a small butterfly emblem, while the year 2011 and the species name are positioned near the lower edge.

    The obverse presents the national coat of arms of Cameroon against a mirror-like field. The central shield bears balanced scales and a vertical sword beneath a star, representing justice, authority, and unity. Surrounding inscriptions identify the issuing country and the denomination 1000 francs CFA, arranged in a classic circular layout.

    Charaxes Fournierae is admired for its bold coloration and rarity, making this coin especially appealing to collectors of butterflies, insects, and exotic wildlife themes. Its elegant design and artistic coloring make it a distinctive addition to any modern world silver collection.
