Reverse description Central denomination numeral 20 FRANCS displayed prominently in the center of the field, with the territorial legend ARCHIPEL DES COMORES arcing around the upper periphery. A decorative mantle or cartouche with stylized local plants flanks the central inscription, with ornamental shells positioned to either side. A coelacanth, the iconic prehistoric fish native to Comorian waters, is depicted below the central denomination, serving as a distinctive regional emblem. The overall design reflects the French colonial coinage aesthetic of the mid-twentieth century.
