The central vignette presents a pastoral scene engraved in intaglio: a herdsman tends a large herd of longhorn cattle on an open savanna plain, with palm trees, tropical foliage, and a radiating sunburst sky in the background. A decorative banana plant and an ornamental geometric cartouche occupy the left margin, while a guilloche rosette enclosing the numeral "25" anchors the right margin. The denomination legend "VINGT-CINQ SYLIS" is lettered in bold across the lower panel, framed above and below by intricate geometric border ornaments. |
