| Obverse description | Printed in brown on an ochre-orange ground, the obverse carries a rectangular cartouche at the top bearing the issuer's title and the authorizing deliberation date. A large laurel wreath frames the central field, within which the denomination UN FRANC is set in bold letterpress type to the right. Below, two manuscript signatures appear under the printed titles Le Trésorier and Le Président, flanked by a vignette of crossed fasces at the foot of the wreath. Series letter and number are contained in ruled panels at the lower left and lower right respectively, with the printer's imprint in small type at the base. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is printed in brown on an uncoloured paper ground and is entirely composed of a large oval laurel wreath tied at the base with a ribbon bow, enclosing the numeral 1 above the word FRANC in bold letterpress, followed by the redemption clause in three lines of capital text. The design is unadorned beyond the wreath border, lending the reverse a deliberately plain, utilitarian character consistent with emergency chamber-of-commerce issues of the period. |
