Obverse description	A vignette of three stylised antelope heads arranged vertically at left, set against a multicolour geometric guilloche underprint in green, orange, and gold tones. To the right, a large intaglio portrait of a young African woman in three-quarter profile, wearing an elaborate traditional headdress interwoven with braided cords and framed by tropical foliage. A blank oval watermark area occupies the centre, flanked by two manuscript signatures above the designations LE GOUVERNEUR and UN CENSEUR.

Reverse description	A detailed agricultural vignette at left centres on a group of figures in traditional dress loading tropical fruits onto a flatbed truck, with lush vegetation and banana plants in the foreground. To the right, a rich still-life composition of tropical produce — including palm fruit clusters, avocados, and other regional fruits — surrounds a blank oval watermark area, rendered in vibrant letterpress and intaglio against a yellow-green guilloche ground. A decorative geometric band of stylised motifs runs along the lower border.
