| Obverse lettering | REPUBLIQUE DU CONGO 100 FRANCS CFA (Translation: Republic of Congo) |
| Reverse description | The reverse presents a detailed portrait effigy of Pope John Paul II facing slightly left, vested in papal vestments and wearing the ornate papal tiara, his right hand raised in a gesture of blessing. A faceted amber-colored crystal gemstone is inset at the front of the tiara, adding a decorative element to the design. A radiant halo-like nimbus surrounds the pontiff's head, rendered in fine engraved lines. The date of canonization 27.04.2014 is inscribed to the left of the portrait, while the legend ST. JEAN PAUL II arcs along the upper right field. The inner border is composed of a fine beaded circle. |
