| Reverse description | Central field features the denomination QUART (quarter) inscribed in two bold lines within an open laurel wreath tied at the base with a ribbon bow. The abbreviated legend EMP. FRA. (Empereur Français — French Emperor) is distributed across the upper portion of the coin, flanking the wreath. The date 1809 appears in the lower exergual area beneath the wreath, with the mint mark A (Paris) positioned to the right inside the wreath border. The overall composition is symmetrical and classically restrained, consistent with the standardized Imperial French coinage of the First Empire. |
