Obverse description Central field displays the national arms of Niger: a shield flanked by two crossed spears on each side, with a sun motif at the center of the shield, all rendered in high relief against a polished field. The denomination '100 FRs' appears prominently above the arms, and the date '1968' is positioned in the exergue below. The circular legend 'FRATERNITÉ-TRAVAIL-PROGRÈS' arcs along the upper rim, with the word 'ESSAI' completing the inscriptions, identifying this piece as a pattern trial strike.
