| Reverse description | Central oval cartouche displaying the denomination numeral 1 above the word PIASTRE and the date 1931 at the base, the whole framed by an elaborate wreath of Indochinese-inspired foliate and floral ornament rendered in high relief, incorporating lotus blossoms, scrolling vines, and geometric motifs in a distinctly Southeast Asian decorative vocabulary. The circular legend INDOCHINE FRANÇAISE arcs around the upper and lower periphery, separated by the ornamental frame, all enclosed within the same beaded and scrollwork border as the obverse. |
