| Obverse description | Central field features industrial mining machinery, evoking the coal mines of northern France as depicted in Émile Zola's novel Germinal. A circular legend appears along the upper periphery, with the denomination below the central design. The engraver's signature 'Le Breton' appears to the lower right of the central motif. The design is rendered in high relief with strong artistic detail befitting a proof issue. |
