The reverse of the coin features the painting "Girl with a Pearl Earring". It depicts a mysterious woman, wearing an oriental turban and what appears to be a very large pearl as an earring, perhaps representing a biblical figure. The obverse of the coin depicts the Coat of Arms of Chad with the inscriptions: "REPUBLIQUE DU TCHAD" – the issuing country, "3000 FRANCS CFA" – the face value, and "999/1000 FINE GOLD" – the fineness of Gold.
