| Obverse description | Typeset and intaglio-engraved neoclassical composition, with the large letterpress denomination "mille francs" occupying the centre of the text field. Two standing female allegorical figures in classical robes and helmets serve as lateral vignettes, each resting upon a shield, flanking the principal inscription block. Decorative guilloche cartouches and ornamental medallions border the upper margin, while three manuscript signatures, a handwritten date, and the solid black band bearing the law reference "LOI DU 24 GERMINAL AN XI" complete the lower portion of the note. |
