| Reverse description | The reverse features a three-quarter facing portrait bust of Jules Verne, bearded and naturalistically rendered, occupying the left-centre of the field. Surrounding the portrait are engraved vignettes referencing Verne's literary works, including a ship's wheel, a submarine, a cannon, and a quill pen, all set against a two-toned frosted and mirror-polished field. The legend '1828 JULES VERNE 1905' arcs along the upper border, flanked by the birth and death years. The denomination '1 1/2 EURO' and the date '2006' appear prominently to the right of the portrait. The inscription 'PRÉCURSEUR DE LA SCIENCE FICTION' runs horizontally across the lower field, above the motto 'LIBERTÉ · ÉGALITÉ · FRATERNITÉ' along the lower border. |
