| Obverse description | The obverse features the coat of arms of Cameroon centrally positioned in the field, depicting a shield surmounted by a star and flanked by crossed fasces, with the national motto rendered in both French and English along the lower arc. A dynamic sculptural composition of numerous outstretched human hands radiates outward from the central shield, filling the field in high relief and conveying themes of collective endeavor. The legend 'REPUBLIQUE DU CAMEROUN' arcs along the upper border, with 'PAIX TRAVAIL PATRIE' and 'PEACE · WORK · FATHERLAND' inscribed in the surrounding field. The denomination '2000 FRANCS CFA', the silver fineness '2 oz Ag', and the date '2026' appear in the lower portion of the field. The entire surface is presented with a gold-gilt finish. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a high-relief sculptural composition depicting multiple nude human figures intertwined in an allegorical scene representing the deadly sin of Lust. The figures, rendered in a neo-classical style with fluid, sensuous modeling, are arranged dynamically across the entire field, their bodies overlapping in an intricate and densely composed tableau. The smooth, swirling background of the field contrasts with the deeply modeled figural group in the foreground, emphasizing the three-dimensional quality of the design. The surface carries the gold-gilt finish consistent with the obverse. The word 'Lust' serves as the sole legend, identifying the allegorical theme of this issue. |
