Obverse description The national coat of arms of Côte d'Ivoire is depicted at centre, featuring an elephant head on a shield flanked by two palm trees, with a rising sun motif above and a ribbon banner inscribed REPUBLIQUE DE CÔTE D'IVOIRE below the shield. The date 2024 appears in the upper field above the arms. The circular legend REPUBLIQUE DE CÔTE D'IVOIRE runs along the upper periphery, while the denomination 5000 FRANCS CFA is inscribed in the lower field. The coin is struck with an antique finish, imparting a rich, aged patina to the design.

Reverse description A highly detailed, ultra-high relief portrait of a rhinoceros is depicted facing directly forward, filling virtually the entire field of the coin and projecting dramatically from the surface. The intricate sculpting captures the deeply folded, textured hide, prominent single horn, and alert ears of the animal with remarkable naturalism. In the upper left field, the weight and fineness legend 1 OZ .9999 AG is inscribed, accompanied by a small mint logo. The engraver's signature P. De Greef appears in cursive script in the upper portion of the field, alongside the legend HAUT-RELIEF RHINO arching along the upper right periphery. The antique finish enhances the sculptural depth and dramatic three-dimensional effect of the composition.
