| Obverse description | At center-left, a large high-relief sculptural effigy of a Mayan deity or ruler in profile facing right, adorned with an elaborate headdress composed of multiple stacked ornamental elements and flanked by serpentine decorative motifs rendered in intricate low relief. Behind the effigy, a richly detailed background evokes Mayan architectural stonework with mosaic-patterned friezes and geometric carvings. A rectangular black inset stone is embedded in the lower-center of the design. To the right, the denomination 10000 FRANCS CFA appears in the field above the Chad national coat of arms, with the year 2017 below; the fineness mark Ag999 appears at the lower left. The curved legend REPUBLIQUE DU TCHAD runs along the left rim. |

| Reverse description | A highly detailed, three-dimensional architectural rendering of the Pyramid of the Magician at Uxmal, the ancient Maya archaeological site in Mexico, depicted in a dramatic frontal elevation rising from the lower foreground to a multi-tiered summit structure with a corbelled doorway. The stepped pyramid is rendered with meticulous stonework detail, including finely textured masonry courses on its steeply sloping sides and a central stairway flanked by terraced platforms. A rectangular black inset stone is set into the central staircase facade, evoking the darkness of the interior passage. Flanking palm trees provide contextual depth in the background. The inscription UXMAL appears in raised lettering along the lower rim. |
