| 正面描述 | The obverse features a large, centrally placed denomination numeral '10' with the abbreviation 'C.' to its right, rendered in bold raised lettering within an unadorned field. The circular legend 'VILLE DE SAINT-GERMAIN-EN-LAYE' runs along the coin's periphery, reading from lower left to lower right. Below the central numeral, a small triangular mint mark flanked by two five-pointed stars is present in the lower field. The overall design is plain and functional, characteristic of French municipal emergency coinage issued during the First World War. |

Saint-Germain-en-Laye issued its own emergency token coinage during World War I as the national government's metal requisitions stripped copper and nickel from civilian circulation entirely. Thousands of French municipalities did the same between 1914 and 1922, producing a sprawling category of necessity money known as monnaies de nécessité. Aluminium was one of the few unregulated metals available to local issuers by 1917, which accounts for the material here rather than any deliberate design choice.
