| Obverse description | The national coat of arms of the Republic of Chad occupies the central field, flanked by the denomination '5000 FRANCS CFA' and the weight designation '1 OZ'. The legend 'REPUBLIQUE DU TCHAD' arcs along the upper periphery, while '999 FINE SILVER' appears in the lower field, confirming the coin's fineness. The date '2024' and the name 'KOOKABURRA' are also inscribed, identifying the series. The composition of inscriptions and heraldic device is rendered in crisp relief against a flat field. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a finely detailed high-relief sculptural depiction of an adult kookaburra (Dacelo novaeguineae) perched protectively over its young chick. The plumage of the adult bird is rendered with exceptional naturalistic detail, capturing the characteristic brown-and-white coloration and sturdy beak of the species. The chick nestles beneath the adult in a posture evoking parental care and protection. The sculptural treatment gives the composition a three-dimensional quality, with no peripheral legend or inscription interrupting the wildlife scene. The overall design is characteristic of the Antique Finish collector series celebrating Australian fauna. |
