| Reverse description | The denomination 50 C MES is displayed prominently in the upper central field, with the figure 50 to the left and the abbreviated CMES to its right. Below the denomination, a stylised spray of three palm fronds, bound at the base with a ribbon, fills the central field, flanked by two additional palm branches curving outward to either side. The circular legend TERRITOIRES·SOUS·MANDAT·DE·LA·FRANCE arcs around the upper periphery, while the territorial name ·TOGO· appears at the base, all separated by a beaded border. The overall design is bold and uncluttered, suited to colonial circulation coinage. |
