| 表面の説明 | Left-facing bare-headed bust of Prince Albert I of Monaco, rendered in high relief in the naturalistic academic style of engraver Louis-Oscar Roty. The effigy displays the Prince with short hair and a distinctive goatee beard, truncated at the shoulder. The circular legend reads ALBERT I PRINCE DE MONACO around the upper periphery, with the engraver's signature O. ROTY incised at the base of the bust, accompanied by the word ESSAI. A fine toothed border frames the entire obverse. |

This is an essay (trial strike) for a 100-franc gold denomination that was never adopted for circulation in Monaco. Albert I had assumed the throne in 1889, and while the principality maintained the right to issue coinage under the Latin Monetary Union framework, full gold series were expensive propositions for a microstate with limited minting infrastructure. The piece was struck at Paris. No circulating version was produced.
