| Obverse description | The national coat of arms of Togo occupies the central field, depicting two rampant lions facing one another as supporters, each holding a bow, flanking a central escutcheon bearing the initials 'RT' within a stylized surround. Two crossed national flags, each charged with a white star, rise above the shield, adorned with three scrolled banners inscribed TRAVAIL, LIBERTE, and PATRIE. The legend REPUBLIQUE TOGOLAISE arcs along the upper rim, while the denomination 100 FRANCS CFA is inscribed in large characters along the lower field. The entire design is contained within a beaded inner border. |

| Reverse description | A green sunbird (family Nectariniidae) in dynamic flight is rendered in the center of the field using polychrome prism technology, displaying vivid iridescent green wings, a blue head and throat, and a rich orange-yellow breast, with a fine curved bill pointing to the right. A smaller incuse silhouette of the same bird in repose appears to the left in the field. The surrounding field is decorated with finely engraved tropical foliage and leaf sprigs in low relief. The family name NECTARINIIDAE arcs along the lower left rim, the date 2010 is inscribed at the right, and the legend FORET TROPICALE curves along the lower rim. An inner beaded border frames the entire composition. |
