| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate bust of King Louis-Philippe I facing left, engraved in high relief with finely detailed hair and a laurel wreath tied at the nape with a ribbon. The engraver's signature BARRE appears in small capitals beneath the truncation. The encircling legend reads LOUIS PHILIPPE I ROI DES FRANÇAIS, separated at the base by two pellets flanking the date 1847. A raised inner ring separates the legend from the field, and a fine dentilated border runs along the coin's outer rim. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
This is an essai — a pattern struck for official evaluation, not circulation — produced by chief engraver Jean-Jacques Barre during the final months of Louis-Philippe's July Monarchy. The phrase "à la charte" references the Constitutional Charter of 1830, which had defined the regime's legitimacy for seventeen years. Within a year of this striking, the revolution of February 1848 swept Louis-Philippe from power entirely, rendering the design obsolete before it could ever be considered for adoption.
Pattern pieces of this type were struck in very small numbers for ministerial review, which explains their persistent rarity in trade today.
