Obverse description The obverse features the face value '10 EURO' prominently displayed within a central field, flanked by an oak branch and a laurel branch evoking the Euro symbol. The design is framed by a series of radiating lines representing the hexagonal outline of metropolitan France. The national legend 'RÉPUBLIQUE FRANÇAISE' arcs along the upper periphery, while the date '2019' appears within the design. The overall composition is rendered in a clean, modern style characteristic of contemporary French commemorative coinage.

Reverse description The reverse depicts a faithful reproduction of a Merovingian gold triens, a coin denomination equivalent to one-third of a solidus, circulated during the reign of Dagobert I (629–639 AD). The triens design is presented in high relief at the center of the field, faithfully evoking the style of early medieval Frankish coinage. During the Merovingian period, the gold monetary system comprised the solidus, the semissis, and the triens, with one solidus equivalent to 40 silver deniers. The surrounding field of the modern coin provides a plain, uncluttered background that highlights the historical motif.
