| Obverse lettering | CHAMBRE DE COMMERCE DE BORDEAUX UN FRANC SERIE |
| Reverse description | At centre, a circular medallion encloses a female bust in profile, pouring liquid from an amphora resting on her shoulder — an allegorical figure evoking the Garonne river or maritime abundance. The medallion surround is decorated with conchs, a trident, and a rudder. A smaller secondary medallion at the foot of the composition contains a ship's stern, reinforcing the maritime theme. |
