| Obverse description | Central device depicts the coat of arms of French Polynesia, featuring a stylised traditional Polynesian double-hulled canoe (pirogue) with a sail rendered in a geometric, low-relief style, set against radiating lines suggestive of the sun. Undulating wave lines occupy the lower field, evoking the Pacific Ocean. The design is executed in a clean, modernist engraving style with no surrounding legend. |
