Republic of Gabon

Before the arrival of Europeans in Africa, there were no states on the territory of Gabon.

In the mid-19th century, French colonizers concluded treaties with local chiefs on the "protection and patronage of France".
In 1849, Libreville, now the capital of Gabon, was founded.
Since 1910, Gabon has been part of French Equatorial Africa.

In 1960 Gabon gained independence.

The Central African franc CFA is used as currency in Gabon.

Inside the sections, the coins are sorted by denomination - from large to small.
The value of the coins is approximate. Most often, it is simply the price for which I once bought this particular coin. You can use it to estimate similar coins (of the same type), but remember that the value is affected by many factors, such as condition and minting date. The price of coins of even the same type can vary greatly depending on the number of surviving examples.
