| Obverse description | The obverse presents a richly detailed, multi-panel composition commemorating the 850th anniversary of Notre-Dame de Paris, rendered with vivid blue enamel highlights evoking the cathedral's celebrated stained-glass windows. At upper right, the Gothic tracery of a rose window frames a medallion depicting the Virgin and Child in relief, rendered in the style of the cathedral's historic portal sculpture. At lower left, a detailed engraving of the cathedral's west facade and flying buttresses is set against a deep field accented with blue color. A prominent gargoyle figure appears in the upper portion of the design, referencing the cathedral's iconic chimera sculptures. The legend 'NOTRE DAME DE PARIS' and the commemorative inscription '850 ANS' appear in stylized lettering, with the republican monogram 'RF' positioned in the lower right field. |
