| Obverse description | Elderly laureate effigy of Louis XV facing left, with the base of the neck draped, rendered in high relief in the late Baroque court style. The portrait displays aged facial features characteristic of the king's final years of reign. The peripheral legend surrounds the bust within a milled border. The truncation of the bust is adorned with drapery consistent with royal portrait conventions of the period. |
