| Reverse description | The reverse features a bold, stylised portrait of the playwright Molière in three-quarter profile, his curly hair rendered in decorative flowing lines characteristic of the Baroque period. To the left of the portrait, a famous quotation from L'Avare is inscribed in stacked lines: 'LA PESTE SOIT DE L'AVARICE ET DES AVARICIEUX!'. The denomination '10 EURO' appears prominently to the right in large numerals. Molière's name is presented in facsimile signature script along the lower portion of the field, with the date '2014' incused in the exergue flanked by decorative dots. |
