| Obverse description | The obverse features a left-facing winged effigy of the Génie de la Bastille, as depicted atop the July Column, with selective gold deposit applied to the figure for chromatic emphasis. The lower field presents a detailed aerial perspective of the Place de la Bastille, rendering the surrounding Haussmannian architecture and the decorative bas-relief cartouches at the column's base. A commemorative legend frames the composition, referencing the citizens who took up arms in defense of public liberties during the Trois Glorieuses, accompanied by the dates 27, 28, and 29 JUILLET 1830. The national monogram RF appears within the legend, and the inscription GÉNIE DE LA BASTILLE identifies the central figure. |
