The reverse of this Silver coin features the iconic "Inverted Jenny" stamp. Issued in 1918, the stamp mistakenly featured an upside-down airplane, a flaw that turned it into a legend. Here, that legend is reborn. The iconic stamp is vividly recreated in color. Around it, a vintage background evokes aged paper. To the left, the inscriptions: "Inverted Jenny" – the name of the coin, and "1918" –the date of its issue. A whispered reminder of history's beauty in imperfection. The obverse of this Silver coin stuns with modern design. A golden post horn overlays a stylized world map, symbolizing the global reach of postage and the timeless spirit of communication. Surrounding it, a border shaped like stamp perforations encloses scenes of transport evolution: a hot air balloon, a horse rider, a steam locomotive, and a vintage plane. All icons of humanity’s quest to connect. On the obverse, also the Coat of Arms of Cameroon, along with the inscriptions: "REPUBLIQUE DU CAMEROUN" – the issuing country, "2025" – the year of issue, and "500 FRANCS CFA" – the face value.
