| Reverse description | A forward-facing head of a leptoceros gazelle (Gazella leptoceros) is depicted centrally, its long slender horns rising prominently and flanking the denomination numeral. The denomination '1 F.' appears divided by the horns in the upper field. Stylised agricultural plants and crops fan outward symmetrically on either side of the gazelle's head, symbolising the natural wealth of the territory. A beaded border frames the entire composition, and the legend AFRIQUE OCCIDENTALE FRANÇAISE curves along the lower periphery. |
