| Obverse description | Plain hexagonal field bearing three lines of incuse Latin legend arranged concentrically: the curved inscription 'CHAMBRE DE COMMERCE' arches across the upper portion following the outline of the coin, the issuing city name 'DJIBOUTI' appears prominently across the centre in bold block letters, and the date '1920' is positioned in the lower field. A row of small decorative dots frames the upper legend along the interior edge. The design is entirely typographic, with no figurative elements, reflecting the utilitarian character of this wartime emergency issue. |
