Obverse description	The national seal of Mauritania is depicted at center within the nickel-plated middle ring, featuring a five-pointed star above a crescent, flanked by sprigs of acacia and millet — the traditional heraldic emblems of the republic. The bronze-plated steel core forms a central disc element. The brass-plated outer ring bears the Arabic legend naming the country along the upper arc and the denomination and Hijri year of issue along the lower arc, separated by decorative star stops.

Reverse description	Two dromedary camels — one adult and one juvenile — stand facing left in the nickel-plated middle ring, rendered in bold relief against a plain field. The bronze-plated steel core at center displays a third camel in profile. The brass-plated outer ring is adorned with a repeating geometric pattern of traditional Mauritanian motifs; the Arabic legend of the Central Bank of Mauritania runs along the upper arc, while the Gregorian year of issue appears to the left and the denomination '20 OUGUIYA' in Latin script occupies the lower arc, punctuated by star stops.
