Below the truncation, the cornucopia privy mark of the Monnaie de Paris appears alongside the numeral '1', serving as a mintmaster or control mark. The effigy is rendered in a neoclassical style befitting the allegorical subject. The legend EUROPA arcs above the bust within the field.

附加信息	The ECU — European Currency Unit — was never legal tender in France or anywhere else, but the Monnaie de Paris began striking these collector pieces in 1987 as a calculated bid to promote European monetary integration ahead of the Maastricht Treaty negotiations. France was among the most aggressive advocates for a common European currency, and these issues had quiet political backing from the Élysée. The ECU itself was a basket currency, its value pegged to a weighted average of member-state currencies through the European Monetary System established in 1979. The .950 silver fineness is unusually high for a modern commemorative — a deliberate quality signal.
