Commemorative issue

Fighting Ebola

Obverse

In the outer rim of the obverse is the country at the top and the denomination at the bottom. The denomination has a five-petal flower and four symbols. These symbols are tiny versions of the large symbol. This design is based on the international Biohazard design of three touching rings open to the outside and a full circle in the middle. But to customize the design, they added a miniature outline of Africa in the middle and the word "virus."
The bat itself is a flying fox, well rendered and quite accurate.

250 DOLLARS 2015

Reverse

Along the edge are the words "African Monetary Union" in six languages. In the center is the denomination 1 Afro and map of Africa showing a lot of the political boundaries, surrounded by a somewhat normal array of rays and stars. Near the island of Madagascar there is what appears to be a mint mark.
In the upper right are the four symbols for world's currency units. In order they are the Euro, the Afro (or Afriq), the US Dollar, the Japanese Yen/Chinese Yuan.
