| Obverse description | A stylized African ceremonial mask rendered in high relief occupies the central field, depicting an elongated oval face with geometric decorative motifs and flanking horn-like projections above, representing traditional West African artistic heritage. The engraver's initials 'RJ' appear below the mask near the lower rim, alongside a small mint mark. The circular legend 'BANQUE CENTRALE DES ETATS DE L'AFRIQUE DE L'OUEST' runs along the periphery, reading from lower left to upper right. |
