| Obverse description | Draped juvenile effigy of Louis XV facing right, with curled hair and lace cravat at the truncation, engraved in the style of Norbert Roettiers. The portrait occupies the central field, rendered in relatively low relief typical of colonial bronze coinage of the period. The circumferential Latin legend reads LUD. XV. D.G. FR. ET NAV. REX, separated by a small saltire, and runs along a raised rim bordered by a fine toothed edge. |
