Obverse description The face is printed in red on cream paper within a double-rule border, with the large central legend «Promesse de mandat territorial» in bold letterpress script occupying the main field. Two circular allegorical vignettes appear: a smaller embossed seal to the centre-left inscribed «GARANTIE» with a seated figure, and a larger intaglio medallion at the lower right enclosing a classical allegorical group with the legend «NATIONALE». The left panel contains manuscript series and control annotations alongside a cursive signature, with a second manuscript signature to the lower centre-right.

A single circular embossed watermark medallion with a classical allegorical figure, identical in type to the obverse guarantee seal, is visible in the centre-right area of the sheet.
