The national coat of arms of Burkina Faso occupies the central field, depicting a quartered shield charged with a five-pointed star, flanked by two rearing stallions as supporters, with crossed spears and a traditional hoe behind the shield. Below the arms, an open book rests at the base, flanked by olive branches, with the national motto 'Unité Progrès Justice' inscribed on a scroll. The legend 'REPUBLIQUE DU BURKINA FASO' arcs along the upper periphery in bold raised Latin lettering, while the denomination '1000 FRANCS CFA' is prominently displayed along the lower margin. |

A dramatic, close-up high-relief portrait of a sacred crocodile fills virtually the entire field, rendered with exceptional naturalistic detail in the antique finish silver. The reptile is depicted with its powerful jaws agape, revealing rows of prominent conical teeth, while the intricately textured scutes and scales of the head and neck are rendered with fine relief work across the field. The legend 'LE CROCODILE SACRÉ' arcs along the upper periphery in incuse Latin lettering, and the date '2013' is inscribed in the lower exergue. |
