| Obverse description | Full-color reproduction of a detail from Gustav Klimt's 1905 masterwork 'The Three Ages of Woman', depicting a mother tenderly cradling her sleeping child, rendered in the painter's characteristic warm golden and ochre tones with floral accents in the figures' hair. The central painted field is framed by a raised sculptural border of interlocking spiral volutes in polished silver, creating a striking Art Nouveau ornamental surround. The legend REPUBLIQUE DU CAMEROUN and the denomination 1000 FRANCS CFA appear alongside the date 2018 and the fineness mark Ag 999, with the Mint of Poland mintmark (mw). |

| Reverse description | Full-color reproduction of a complementary detail from Gustav Klimt's 1905 painting 'The Three Ages of Woman', presenting a further scene from the composition in the artist's signature Symbolist style, characterised by richly decorative patterning, luminous skin tones, and ornamental floral motifs. The painted image is similarly enclosed within the coin's raised spiral-volute silver border, maintaining the unified Art Nouveau aesthetic of the issue. The reverse field is dominated by the color-printed artwork with no additional lettering. |
