| Beschrijving voorzijde | The coat of arms of the city of Marseille is depicted centrally, surrounded by a circular legend. At the top of the design, a medallion features a bust of Mercury in profile, serving as a prominent decorative element above the armorial shield. The composition reflects the civic and commercial authority of the Marseille Chamber of Commerce, with the engraver's initials and issuer's name incorporated into the surrounding legend. The overall style is characteristic of early 20th-century French municipal emergency coinage, with detailed heraldic engraving. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
French chambers of commerce began issuing emergency token coinage in 1914 when wartime hoarding stripped small change from circulation almost overnight. Marseille's chamber was among the most prolific issuers in the south, eventually producing millions of pieces in multiple denominations. This aluminium striking is a pattern — the production issues were almost certainly celluloid or cardboard, materials the Marseille chamber used extensively precisely because metal allocations were tightly controlled by the state for the war effort.
