Obverse description Central field features a caduceus — a winged staff entwined by two serpents — flanked symmetrically by two tall date palms against a stylized landscape background. The entire central motif is encircled by a dotted border. The circular legend CHAMBRE DE COMMERCE D'ALGER is inscribed along the upper periphery in raised Latin letters, with the date 1917 positioned at the bottom of the coin between two small decorative stars.

Reverse description The large denomination numeral '5' accompanied by the abbreviation 'c.' occupies the central field in bold, horizontally lined relief. A sprig of oak leaves extends from the lower left, while an olive branch curves from the lower right, the two sprigs crossed and bound at the base, forming a decorative wreath-like arrangement beneath the denomination. A small triangular mint mark appears at the lower left within the field. The entire design is enclosed by a continuous dotted border running along the inner edge of the coin.
