Reverse description A detailed depiction of the French first-rate ship of the line 'Le Soleil Royal' under full sail occupies the central field, rendered in finely engraved relief with rigging and hull ornamentation clearly visible. The ship's name 'LE SOLEIL ROYAL' arcs along the upper border as the primary legend. The denomination '1½ E' is prominently displayed to either side of the vessel, with '1½' to the left and 'E' to the right. The dates '1670' and '1692', representing the active service years of the warship, flank the hull at lower left and lower right respectively, each accompanied by a small anchor device. The legend 'HISTOIRE DE LA MARINE FRANÇAISE' curves along the lower border, attributing the design to the series on French naval history.
