Reverse
The central part of the reverse features a relief design of a free kick: a footballer kicks the ball from the penalty line towards the goal of the opposing team, defended by a goalkeeper. To the left of the goal is the fineness mark for the copper-nickel alloy '999 CuNi'. Along the upper edge of the coin is an inscription in Spanish: 'CAMPEONATÓ MUNDIAL DE FUTBOL USA 1994' (World Cup USA 1994). The coin's edge is reeded.
Obverse
The coat of arms of the Republic of Equatorial Guinea is positioned in the center. It features a heraldic shield depicting a silk-cotton tree (bombax). Above the shield, six six-pointed stars are arranged in an arc. At the base is the motto in Spanish: 'UNIDAD PAZ Y JUSTICIA' (Unity, Peace, and Justice). The coat of arms divides the mint year '1993' into two parts: '19' on the left and '93' on the right. The coin's edge is reeded. Along the edge are inscriptions in Spanish: on the left, top, and right, the country name 'REPUBLICA DE GUINEA ECUATORIAL' (Republic of Equatorial Guinea); at the bottom, the inscription '1000 FRANCOS' (1000 Francs).
