| Obverse description | Bare-headed right-facing effigy of President Jean-Bédel Bokassa occupies the central field, rendered in high relief with finely detailed surface texture. The upper legend arcing around the portrait reads 'REPUBLIQUE CENTRAFRICAINE' followed by '10e ANNIVERSAIRE DE L'INDEPENDANCE' with the dates '1960' and '1970' flanking the bust. The lower field bears the name 'JEAN BEDEL BOKASSA' centrally, flanked to the left by 'UNITE' and to the right by 'TRAVAIL', with 'DIGNITE' inscribed along the lower rim. Decorative dot-and-hand motifs adorn the inner border at left and right. |
