| Obverse description | Central field displays the Haitian coat of arms featuring a palm tree flanked by two cannon on a trophy of arms, with a Phrygian cap at the summit. The design is rendered in low relief with a somewhat crude execution characteristic of early Haitian coinage. The circular legend REPUBLIQUE D'HAITI is inscribed along the upper periphery in Latin letters, with the denomination 25.C appearing in the lower field. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded border. |

| Reverse description | Bare-headed bust of President Jean-Pierre Boyer facing left, with naturalistically rendered curly hair and a plain truncation, occupying the greater part of the field. The circular legend J.P. BOYER PRESIDENT runs along the upper and lateral periphery in Latin letters, flanked by small five-pointed stars. The date AN 25, referring to Year 25 of Haitian independence (1828), is inscribed in the lower exergual area. The design is enclosed within a beaded border consistent with that of the obverse. |
