| Reverse description | The reverse displays the denomination '5' in large numerals above the word 'FRANCS' in bold lettering, dominating the upper central field. Below, an elegantly composed decorative motif features intertwined branches of olive, oak, and wheat rendered in fine relief, symbolizing peace, strength, and prosperity. The date 1960 is inscribed in the lower exergue between the botanical sprays. The Republican motto LIBERTE·EGALITE·FRATERNITE curves around the full periphery of the field, punctuated by raised dots between each word. The overall composition reflects the clean, refined aesthetic adopted for the new franc series. |
