| Obverse description | Within a raised circular border, the names of three cities — ALAIS, MARSEILLE, and GAP — are inscribed in three horizontal lines across the central field, accompanied by a decorative floral or foliate ornament below. Surrounding this central area, a peripheral legend arranged along the inner rim reads the names of six additional cities of the Provençal region: NICE, AVIGNON, NIMES, ARLES, TOULON, and DIGNE, each separated by raised dots. The overall design emphasizes the collective authority of the nine participating chambers of commerce, with no figurative imagery. |
