| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a highly detailed stylised representation of the Fabergé 'Rosebud' Imperial Easter egg, presented in a vertical orientation that exploits the oval shape of the coin. The egg's decorative surface is rendered with intricate dot-and-scroll ornamentation in two registers separated by a horizontal band, with a crown-like finial at the top and a foliate base element below. Fine beaded borders frame the egg design on either side, and the inscriptions detailing the coin's specifications are placed in the lower exergue. |

| Additional information |
Chad's participation in the Fabergé-licensed egg series was arranged through the Bavarian Mint on behalf of the Chadian government, one of several African states whose nominal issuing authority has been used for collectible programs with no meaningful domestic circulation. At 0.622 g, this sits at the lower boundary of what can practically carry a gold purity stamp — the series prioritizes novelty packaging over numismatic substance.
