| Reverse description | Two Comorian women in traditional robes at left, one carrying a basket of fruit and the other balancing a woven tray on her head. A tropical coastal scene occupies the right portion, with outrigger canoes beached beneath tall palm trees, a small vessel on calm waters, and volcanic mountains visible on the horizon under a warm sunset sky. Arabic inscriptions appear at upper left and upper right, with decorative border patterns along the top edge. |
