| Obverse description | A dramatic close-up composition depicts four Allied soldiers advancing during the Normandy landings, rendered in low relief across the right portion of the field. In the background, paratroopers descend beneath parachutes, evoking the airborne assault preceding the amphibious landings. The scene is rendered in a bold, modern artistic style with strong contrasts and dynamic movement. The legend RÉPUBLIQUE FRANÇAISE appears along the upper periphery, with the date 6 JUIN 1944 inscribed prominently in the field, commemorating D-Day. |
