| Obverse description | Bare-headed right-facing portrait bust of King Albert I of Belgium in military uniform, rendered in high relief with finely detailed epaulettes, braided collar, and a decorative order medallion on his chest. The effigy is boldly modeled in the medallic style characteristic of engraver Godefroid Devreese. The Dutch-language legend arcs around the upper and right periphery, separated by raised dot stops. The entire design is contained within a finely beaded inner border. |
