| Obverse description | Uncrowned right-facing effigy of King Charles III occupies the central field, with the date divided on either side below the portrait, reading '20' to the left and '24' to the right. The engraver's initials 'MJ' appear in small characters to the lower right of the bust. A circular dotted border frames the design, within which the legend 'CHARLES III · 500 FRANCS CFA' arcs along the upper periphery. The legend 'REPUBLIC OF CAMEROON' curves along the lower border, flanking a small coat of arms at the base. A fine guilloche engine-turned pattern fills the background field. |
