Obverse: coat of Arms Central African Republic. Reverse: it shows the Gold-banded Forester (Euphaedra neophron). It sits, virtually lifelike, in a winged 3D-technique on flowers and looks like it could fly away at any moment.

Almost like a real butterfly on the coin. The delicate wing colouring runs from the inside outward and from light to dark blue. The broad orange-black stripes on the wing tips and the beautiful metallic shimmer create the characteristic play of colours of the Gold-banded Forester.
