A bilingual circular legend reads 'BANQUE DU CONGO BELGE' in the upper arc and 'BANK VAN BELGISCH CONGO' in the lower arc, presenting the issuing authority in both French and Dutch. Two five-pointed stars flank the central denomination at the mid-field, serving as decorative separators between the two inscriptions.

| Descrição do reverso |
A naturalistically rendered African elephant strides to the left in high relief, occupying the majority of the coin's field. The animal is depicted in full profile with prominent tusks and a raised trunk, conveying a sense of strength and movement. A faint ground line runs beneath the elephant's feet, anchoring the composition. The date '1947' is inscribed in the lower exergue in clear, evenly spaced numerals. The design is framed by a finely toothed inner border consistent with the obverse. |
