Obverse description The central field features the Coat of Arms of Cameroon, flanked by the date 20-25 divided across the shield, all encircled by the legend REPUBLIC OF CAMEROON and the denomination 1000 FRANCS CFA. Surrounding this central medallion, twelve finely detailed portrait busts of various dog breeds are arranged in a radial composition, separated by decorative stained-glass-style partitions that divide the field into individual panels. The motto PAIX TRAVAIL PATRIE / PEACE WORK FATHERLAND appears on the coat of arms, while REPUBLIQUE DU CAMEROUN is inscribed on the shield's base ribbon. The overall design presents a bold, high-relief aesthetic with blackened finish applied to the dog portraits in contrast to the polished central device.

Reverse description A finely modelled, high-relief portrait bust of a German Shepherd dog is depicted in three-quarter view facing slightly right, with detailed rendering of the breed's characteristic erect ears, dense coat, and open mouth with tongue extended. The legend MY TRUEST FRIEND arcs along the upper periphery of the field in bold capital letters. The breed name GERMAN SHEPHERD appears in two lines to the lower left of the portrait. A blackened finish applied to the dog's portrait contrasts sharply with the mirror-polished field, enhancing the three-dimensional sculptural effect.
