Reverse description Denomination '10 CENTIMES' displayed in two lines at center, within a wreath of laurel and oak branches tied at the base with a ribbon, flanked by three small five-pointed stars along the lower arc. The republican motto 'LIBERTE EGALITE FRATERNITE' is distributed around the periphery between the wreath and the milled border, with a single star at the upper center above the wreath. The overall composition reflects the classicizing Republican aesthetic of the Dupré type.
