| Reverse description | The large numeral '5' dominates the central field, flanked symmetrically by two groups of palm trees rendered in stylised relief, evoking Guinea's tropical landscape. Below the numeral, the denomination 'FRANCS GUINEENS' is inscribed in two lines. The date 'LE 2 OCTOBRE 1958', commemorating Guinea's independence, curves along the upper periphery, while the national motto 'TRAVAIL - JUSTICE - SOLIDARITE' (Work - Justice - Solidarity) runs along the lower periphery between two small five-pointed stars. |
