Obverse description Central field depicts a traditional Comorian fishing dhow under sail on open water, with a large fish rendered in the lower portion of the field in a stylized naturalistic manner, evoking the archipelago's maritime heritage and FAO food production theme. The upper portion of the field is occupied by an Arabic legend, while the French legend AUGMENTONS LA PRODUCTION ALIMENTAIRE curves along the lower periphery.
