| Obverse lettering | 1000 | 1000 BANQUE DE FRANCE MILLE FRANCS |
| Reverse description | A classical allegorical female portrait — veiled, with braided hair and light drapery — forms the central intaglio vignette, rendered with the refined engraving technique characteristic of Banque de France issues of this period. The figure is flanked symmetrically by acanthus-leaf and floral scrollwork motifs, with the denomination '1000' repeated in the upper left and right corners. The issuer's name and the full statutory counterfeiting warning inscription run along the lower portion of the note. |
