At center, the circular national arms of the Republic of the Congo — a shield supported by two lions rampant beneath a royal crown — is enclosed within a circular legend reading 'REPUBLIQUE DU CONGO'. The arms are surrounded by an ornate interlaced arabesque pattern filling the lateral fields. The date '2 0 2 4' is displayed in large numerals along the lower border, with the motto 'UNITE TRAVAIL PROGRES' (Unity, Work, Progress) incorporated in the design.

Reverse description Full-color devotional scene depicting Jesus Christ as the Good Shepherd, rendered in the style of 19th-century academic religious painting. Christ is shown standing in three-quarter view, barefoot, draped in a red robe and blue mantle, cradling a white lamb in his arms and holding a shepherd's crook in his right hand. A halo of divine light surrounds his head. A flock of sheep occupies the middle ground against a warm pastoral landscape at dusk. The image is framed by an ornate gold border featuring scrollwork corner ornaments on the dark field.
