Beschrijving voorzijde Right-facing draped bust of Emperor Menelik II, wearing an elaborately decorated traditional Ethiopian crown with ornate banding and a beaded border at the base. The emperor is depicted with a short beard, his attire featuring a finely engraved collar. The circular Ge'ez legend surrounds the effigy, reading from upper left through the field on both sides, with a small ornamental stop at the base below the truncation. The portrait, engraved by Jean Lagrange, displays fine relief modelling consistent with the high artistic standards of the Paris Mint.

Beschrijving keerzijde Plain, largely uniface reverse trial die presenting the incuse mirror-image legend 'THALARI' impressed centrally across the field, indicating this piece served as a one-sided obverse trial strike. The flat, unfinished reverse field shows characteristic marks and toning consistent with a working die test, with no decorative border or additional design elements. The numeral '1' appears incuse above the main legend, denoting the denomination. The overall surface confirms this as a technical proof of the obverse die rather than a completed pattern coin.
