The 5 Francs piece features a traditional African mask as its central motif, while the 10 Francs piece displays a stylized horse head, designs tied to the cultural identity of the new state. The reverses incorporate agricultural motifs with ears of grain accompanying their respective face values. Both specimens are in excellent condition, with sharp relief, satin-like surfaces, and abundant original luster, notably the 10 Francs piece for its high grade MS65 awarded by NGC.
