| Obverse description | The national coat of arms of Togo is displayed centrally in the field, featuring two lions rampant as supporters flanking a shield, with the monogram 'RT' (République Togolaise) at the centre of the shield, surmounted by a scroll bearing the motto 'LIBERTÉ' and flanked by national flags. The denomination '250 FRANCS' appears in the lower field. The circular legend 'REPUBLIQUE TOGOLAISE' arcs along the upper rim, with 'TRAVAIL LIBERTÉ PATRIE' inscribed on the ribbons within the arms. A beaded border frames the entire design. |

| Reverse description | A gilt portrait bust of Angela Merkel facing right occupies the central field, rendered in a plain and naturalistic style with her characteristic short hairstyle. The name 'ANGELA MERKEL' is inscribed along the lower rim, while 'BUNDESKANZLERIN' appears prominently along the upper arc. Surrounding the portrait in a circular arrangement, a biographical legend details the key milestones of her political career, including her 1990 entry into the CDU, ministerial posts, and her election as Federal Chancellor in 2005. The gilt finish of the portrait contrasts with the mirrored proof fields of the silver coin. |
