| Obverse description | The national coat of arms of Côte d'Ivoire occupies the central field, depicting an elephant head on a shield flanked by two palm trees, with a rising sun above and a ribbon banner inscribed RÉPUBLIQUE DE CÔTE D'IVOIRE at the base of the shield. The date 2020 appears above the coat of arms in the upper field. The legend RÉPUBLIQUE DE CÔTE D'IVOIRE arcs along the upper periphery, while the denomination 10000 FRANCS CFA is inscribed in two lines across the lower field. The coin is struck with an antique finish, imparting a deeply toned, aged appearance to the entire surface. |

| Reverse description | A highly detailed, ultra-high relief portrait of a rhinoceros head facing directly forward dominates the entire reverse field, rendered with exceptional sculptural naturalism capturing the animal's textured hide, prominent primary horn, and small secondary horn. The surrounding background features subtly engraved vegetation, enhancing the sense of the animal's natural habitat. In the upper portion of the field, the inscriptions 1 KG .999 AG, MAUQUOY, HAUT-RELIEF, and RHINO are arranged in a horizontal legend. An engraver's monogram or mint mark appears in the lower left field. The antique finish gives the design a dramatic three-dimensional quality consistent with the haut-relief striking technique. |
