Obverse description Central vignette presents a cotton harvest scene with multiple figures sorting and carrying cotton bolls in baskets, set against a rural village backdrop with thatched huts and tropical foliage. To the right, a large portrait of a young woman in traditional dress and beaded jewellery dominates the foreground, a basket balanced on her head. The denomination '1000' appears in each upper corner within ornate cartouches, flanked by intricate multicolour guilloche borders, with 'BANQUE CENTRALE' at top and 'MILLE FRANCS' at the base.

Reverse description The central vignette illustrates a tropical logging scene in which a bare-chested woodcutter in the left foreground raises an axe to fell a large tree, while a second worker operates at right and a red tractor loaded with felled logs occupies the middle ground amid dense equatorial forest. The denomination '1000' is printed in each upper corner within yellow cartouches, with an ornate geometric and foliate border framing the composition throughout.
