| Obverse description | A contemporary reinterpretation of Louis-Oscar Roty's celebrated Semeuse (Sower) effigy, depicted in full stride facing left, sowing seeds against a stylized background referencing the European flag motif with vertical stripes and a ring of twelve five-pointed stars. The monogram 'RF' (République Française) appears in a shield-shaped cartouche to the right of the figure, with the date split '20' to the left and '18' to the right of the central device. The design merges the classical allegorical figure with a modern graphic treatment evoking the euro banknote aesthetic. |

| Reverse description | A richly detailed allegorical composition evoking the French Revolutionary period, featuring the storming of the Bastille fortress of 1789 as the central historical scene, flanked by figures of the National Guard and revolutionaries wearing the distinctive Phrygian cap and tricorn hat. To the left of the composition, faithful reproductions of both the obverse and reverse of the historical 1793 Écu de 6 Livres coin are depicted in relief, serving as a numismatic reference to the issue's commemorative theme. The denomination '100 EURO' and the historical value '1793 SIX LIVRES' appear as legends, accompanied by the mint mark 'AA'. |
