| Reverse description | The large denomination numeral 100 dominates the central field, rendered in a distinctive decorative style with dotted outlines and geometric patterning within each digit. Below the numeral, the word FRANCS is inscribed in bold capitals, with ESSAI appearing beneath it in smaller lettering, denoting the pattern status of this issue. The date 1971 is displayed along the lower periphery on a scroll-like banner. Flanking the central design on either side are elaborate geometric panels featuring zigzag and chevron motifs in an African decorative tradition, framed by a rope-twist inner border. The legend BANQUE CENTRALE arcs along the upper periphery. |
