| Reverse description | The denomination '10' is displayed in large numerals at the centre of the field, with 'CENTIMES' inscribed in a straight line immediately below, all enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The mint mark 'A' for Paris appears beneath the denomination, and the word 'ESSAI' is prominently struck at the base within the inner circle. The Republican motto 'LIBERTE EGALITE FRATERNITE' runs along the outer border, separated by small ornamental stops. The overall design is clean and typographically bold, consistent with the trial piece character of this essai. |
