| Reverse description | A forward-facing Leptoceros gazelle head with long, upswept horns dominates the central field, flanked symmetrically by stylised agricultural motifs including millet, cotton bolls, and other crops rendered in fine detail. The denomination 5 F. is prominently displayed in the upper field, one numeral to each side of the gazelle's horns. A decorative border of stylised floral elements encircles the upper portion of the design. The legend AFRIQUE OCCIDENTALE FRANÇAISE curves along the lower periphery. |
