| Obverse description | Plain brass field surrounding a central circular hole, with the country name LIBAN inscribed in raised Latin lettering across the upper arc. The denomination is expressed as 1/2 flanking either side of the central hole, with the word PIASTRE appearing in a straight legend across the lower field. The design is austere and utilitarian, consistent with wartime emergency coinage produced under French Mandate authority. |
