| Obverse description | The central field displays the large numeral '10' in bold raised relief within a plain raised circular border. The annular legend surrounding the border reads 'SPÉCIMEN «LE NICKEL»' to the upper left and 'AL.25·75' to the upper right, with 'SOCIÉTÉ ANONYME' along the lower arc, all in raised Latin capitals. The entire design is framed by a continuous beaded border at the rim. The alloy specification 'AL.25·75' denotes the copper-nickel composition ratio. The overall design is austere and typographic, reflecting the token's utilitarian emergency coinage character. |
