| Obverse description | The brass centre features a stylised traditional West African mask in high relief, depicted frontally with outstretched wings or headdress elements flanking the upper portion and curved serpentine forms below, rendered in a bold, geometric artistic style. The engraver's initials 'RJ' (Raymond Joly) appear at the base of the central device. The copper-nickel outer ring bears the full circular legend 'BANQUE CENTRALE DES ÉTATS DE L'AFRIQUE DE L'OUEST' around the upper and lower periphery, separated by a raised rim. The bimetallic contrast between the brass centre and the silver-toned ring accentuates the central motif. |
