Obverse description The national coat of arms of the Republic of the Congo is depicted in the left portion of the rectangular field, featuring a shield supported by two African elephants and surmounted by a crown, with the motto 'UNITÉ TRAVAIL PROGRÈS' inscribed on a ribbon below. To the right of the arms, the country name 'RÉPUBLIQUE DU CONGO' appears in two lines of raised lettering, followed below by the denomination '100 FRANCS CFA' in prominent incuse characters. The design is rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished proof field, consistent with the bar-format presentation of this miniature gold issue.

Reverse description The reverse depicts a scene illustrating the Tenth Commandment, showing two robed biblical figures — an elderly bearded man and a younger companion — crouching over a scattering of coins spilling from a sack, rendered in fine engraved relief in the left portion of the field. To the lower left, a stone tablet inscribed with the Roman numeral 'X.' evokes the tablets of the Ten Commandments. The right portion of the field bears the commandment text in raised Latin-script lettering: 'YOU SHALL NOT COVET ANYTHING THAT BELONGS TO YOUR NEIGHBOUR', followed by the year '2017' and the specifications '1/50 OZ - .9999 FINE GOLD'.
