Obverse description Central field depicts a traditional Comorian outrigger sailing vessel (boutre) at sea, with a large fish rendered below it in the lower field, evoking the FAO theme of increased food production. An Arabic legend reading 'بنك يمور' (Bank of Comoros in abbreviated form) curves along the upper portion of the field. The Latin FAO motto 'AUGMENTONS LA PRODUCTION ALIMENTAIRE' encircles the lower periphery. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded border.
