Reverse description The reverse features bold incuse or raised lettering arranged in three horizontal lines across the field: 'CENTIME', 'L'AN 2.', and 'A' (the mint mark for Paris), denoting the denomination, the year in the Revolutionary calendar (Year 2, corresponding to 1793–1794), and the mint of issue. Above the denomination, a small facing head — likely a classical or allegorical portrait — is positioned at the top of the field as an engraver's or workshop mark. The rim is bordered by a matching series of raised beads consistent with the obverse, lending a neat and uniform appearance to this pattern piece.
