| Obverse description | The obverse features a decorative magic wand trailing a scroll of stars amid a rich tableau of objects evoking European fairy tales, rendered in an illustrative style. At center, the face value '1 1/2 €' is prominently displayed alongside the mint marks of the Monnaie de Paris and the national motto 'LIBERTÉ ÉGALITÉ FRATERNITÉ'. Below the central inscription appears the date '2003', the issuer's abbreviation 'RF' for République Française, and the celebrated fairy-tale opening 'IL ÉTAIT UNE FOIS...' In the field, decorative motifs referencing classic children's stories surround the inscriptions, lending the composition a whimsical, storybook aesthetic. |
