Description:
Obverse
The obverse design features a map of the entire African continent. Most of it is frosted, but Chad is mirrored. The entire map is encircled by rim inscriptions that provide detailed information about the coin, including the official name of the issuing nation, "REPUBLIQUE DU TCHAD."
Reverse
The lion is shown at a slight angle. The closeup view enables the holder to see details of his face and mane. While the design makes use of most of the surface area, space is left on the left for the inscription "AFRICAN LION."
