The obverse features the large numeral '10' prominently in the centre of the field, with a stylised African mask or toma head superimposed between the digits, surmounted by a downward-pointing triangular motif. The circular legend 'BANQUE CENTRALE' arcs along the upper periphery, while 'ETATS DE L'AFRIQUE DE L'OUEST' curves along the lower periphery, both in raised Latin lettering. Two small decorative symbols — resembling a fish and a bird — flank the central design in the left and right fields respectively. The overall design is bold and graphic, combining a contemporary numeral treatment with a traditional West African artistic element. |

The reverse displays a frontal view of a West African long-horned antelope (sassaby or topi), its elongated ribbed horns sweeping upward to the rim, flanked symmetrically by sheaves of millet and maize ears rendered in fine relief. A decorative border of stylised seed pods encircles the entire composition. The engravers' signature 'G.B.L. BAZOR' appears in small incised lettering to the lower left of the field. The date of issue is inscribed along the lower exergue between two small decorative dashes, the whole design reflecting the naturalistic yet formal engraving style characteristic of the Monnaie de Paris. |
