| Reverse description | Frontal view of a zebu head with large curved horns, rendered in high relief at the centre of the field, symbolising Madagascar's agricultural heritage. The denomination 5 FRANCS is inscribed in two lines above the zebu's horns, with the numeral 5 arching over them. A flowering coffee branch appears to the left and a rice stalk to the right, flanking the central motif and representing the island's principal crops. The legend MADAGASCAR curves along the lower periphery in bold raised lettering. The entire design is framed by a decorative denticled inner border. |
