| Obverse description | Denomination numeral and the value '40 FRANCS' displayed within a bracelet-like circular border adorned with five cowrie shells. The surrounding legend 'BANQUE D EMISSION' arcs around the periphery, interspersed with symbolic decorative elements. The overall design reflects an Africanist artistic style consistent with late colonial French West African coinage patterns. |
