Reverse description The reverse presents a highly detailed relief scene inspired by Jacques-Louis David's monumental painting of the Coronation of Napoleon I. Napoleon is depicted in right-facing profile, robed in his imperial ermine-trimmed mantle and laurel wreath, raising the imperial crown aloft with his right hand before an assembly of witnesses rendered in the background. To the lower left, a kneeling figure in court dress is visible, referencing the ceremonial crowning of Joséphine. The date '2021' appears in the left field, and the curved legend along the lower rim reads 'D'AP. DAVID · SACRE DE L'EMPEREUR NAPOLEON IER', attributing the design to David's celebrated masterpiece.
