| Reverse description | The reverse features a finely detailed depiction of an 18th-century hussar helmet rendered in high relief, the visor and decorative crest faithfully reproduced with meticulous attention to period detail. The background is populated with dynamic battle scenes showing cavalry engagements with mounted soldiers and horses in combat, evoking the martial heritage of the hussar tradition. Selective gilding highlights key elements of the composition, enhancing the visual contrast. The face value 10000 FRANCS CFA, the year of issue 2024, the silver specification 2 oz Ag .999, and the period designation 18TH CENTURY are all inscribed around the periphery of the reverse field. |
