Obverse description	The obverse features the denomination '1 FR' at centre, flanked by a six-pointed star on each side. A bilingual circular legend surrounds the design, reading 'BANQUE DU CONGO BELGE' in French at the top and 'BANK VAN BELGISCH CONGO' in Dutch at the bottom, identifying the issuing institution. The typography is clean and utilitarian, consistent with the colonial coinage aesthetic of the period.
