| Obverse description | Central field features a large facing effigy of the golden funerary mask of Tutankhamun, rendered in high relief with fine detail depicting the nemes headdress, false beard, and traditional pharaonic ornamentation. The legend 'REPUBLIQUE DE GUINEE' arcs along the upper periphery, while the name 'TOUTANKHAMON' appears in the lower field beneath the mask. An ankh symbol is visible to the lower right of the mask, referencing the Egyptian motif. The overall design conveys a bold, commemorative artistic style typical of West African gold issues of the early 1970s. |
