| Obverse description | The copper-nickel centre displays the denomination '5' to the right of centre, accompanied by an olive branch in the upper field and an oak branch in the lower field, both rendered in finely detailed relief. The legend 'REPUBLIQUE FRANCAISE' arcs around the inner periphery of the centre, with 'EURO' inscribed horizontally across the middle field. The date '2025' appears vertically along the right inner edge of the nickel brass ring. The outer ring is decorated with a geometric hatched pattern of intersecting diagonal lines, giving a refined decorative border. |

| Reverse description | The silver-toned copper-nickel centre features a richly detailed depiction of Capricorn, the mythological sea-goat, shown with the foreparts of a goat — including prominent curved horns and a flowing mane — transitioning into a scaled fish tail that curves dynamically across the lower field. A star map in the background traces the Capricorn constellation with connected stars set against a geometric framework. The Scorpio (♏) and Capricorn (♑) astrological glyphs are incused into the outer nickel brass ring at the upper left and upper right respectively, accompanied by foliate and architectural decorative motifs in the ring. |
