| Obverse description | The obverse features a stylized racing sailboat in full sail, depicted in profile navigating to the right across a calm sea, with a large ship's helm (steering wheel) prominently rendered to the left. The design commemorates the around-the-world sailing race ('Course Autour du Monde du Voilier') and the Treaty of Rome. The curved legend 'REPUBLIQUE D'HAITI' arcs around the upper periphery, with the dual dates '1977' and '1978' inscribed to the right, and the inscriptions 'SAIL FOR EUROPE', 'COURSE AUTOUR DU MONDE DU VOILIER', and 'TRAITE DE ROME' distributed within the field. |
