| Reverse description | A highly detailed, ultra-high relief effigy of a tiger's face depicted in full frontal view, filling the entire shaped flan. The tiger's fur, whiskers, and characteristic facial markings are rendered with exceptional sculptural precision, conveying a powerful and naturalistic portrait. The eyes are deeply set and expressive, while the broad muzzle and prominent whiskers are finely articulated. No legends or inscriptions appear on this side. The antique finish enhances the depth and contrast of the intricate relief work. |

| Additional information |
Chad has no cultural or geographic connection to tigers — this is a bullion and collector piece issued under the Central African CFA franc system, where member states frequently license exotic wildlife themes to European minting houses specifically for the international collector market. The actual monetary authority, the BEAC, has little involvement in the design decisions for these issues.
