Obverse script Latin
Obverse lettering HONORE V PRINCE DE MONACO E. ROGAT.
Reverse description Central field occupied by the denomination UN DÉCIME and date 1838 in bold serif capitals, arranged on three lines within an open wreath of finely detailed oak branches bearing acorns, tied at the base with a ribbon. Below the date, the mint mark C M flanks a small clasped-hands device, serving as the Monaco Mint identifier. The wreath is enclosed within a raised beaded border matching the obverse. The plain field within the wreath and the strong relief of the oak leaves convey a distinctly medallic quality consistent with this unadopted pattern issue.
