The denomination UN FRANC appears in large bold lettering within a dark panel at centre, below which a small circular vignette of Marianne with laurel wreath is set between the two mayors' manuscript signatures; the guarantee text citing the Municipal Council deliberations of 7 November 1914 and the Prefect's approval of 10 November 1914 is printed in fine script below the denomination panel.
