| Obverse lettering | 2016 RÉPUBLIQUE GABONAISE 1000 FRANCS CFA 1 oz. .999 Ag |
| Reverse description | The reverse presents a finely detailed high-relief depiction of a giant panda resting among a dense arrangement of bamboo stalks and leaves, the composition filling the entire scalloped flan. The panda's head is rendered with exceptional naturalistic detail, its characteristic black eye patches and rounded ears clearly defined against the textured fur. Multiple bamboo culms of varying diameters are arranged both vertically and diagonally, their segmented nodes and cut ends shown with precise engraving. The overall composition is designed so that the irregular scalloped edge of the coin directly follows the silhouette of the bamboo and panda motif, creating a seamless three-dimensional sculptural effect. No legends or inscriptions appear on the reverse. |
