| Obverse description | The central field displays the coat of arms of Cameroon, featuring a shield with scales of justice flanked by two crossed fasces, surmounted by a five-pointed star. The bilingual national motto appears in the field: 'PAIX / PEACE', 'TRAVAIL / WORK', and 'PATRIE / FATHERLAND'. The legend 'REPUBLIQUE DU CAMEROUN' curves along the upper portion of an inner beaded circle, with the denomination '1000 FRANCS CFA' inscribed below. The date '2025' is divided across the lower field flanking the arms, while the outer annular border is richly decorated with an intricate array of festive Christmas motifs in high relief, including Santa's sleigh, reindeer, Christmas trees, gift boxes, snowflakes, gingerbread figures, ornaments, angels, and holiday characters. |

| Reverse description | The reverse features a large central coloured insert depicting a painterly Christmas scene in rich polychrome: Santa Claus, kneeling in the snow and dressed in his traditional red and white suit, presents a gift-wrapped package to two young children warmly dressed in winter clothing, one of whom holds a glowing lantern. The background shows a snow-covered village at night illuminated by warm window light, with decorated Christmas trees visible. The coloured insert is framed by a dark annular border bearing the inscription 'Precious Family Moments' in elegant script, embellished with small stars. The outermost milled border is decorated in relief with festive motifs including bows, ribbons, snowflakes, and ornamental elements. |
