The large numeral '15' appears in raised relief to the upper right of the cathedral. Below the architectural motif, the legend 'Ecus d'ALBI' is inscribed within the inner circle, with the commemorative dates '1er au 8 AVRIL 1995' along the lower border. The outer legend 'ASSOCIATION NUMISMATIQUE ALBIGEOISE' arcs along the upper periphery, and the engraver's signature 'C. CARDOT' appears in the lower left field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
French numismatic clubs began issuing regional fantasy écus in the early 1990s partly in response to the looming euro, which was already signaling the end of the franc. The Amicale Numismatique du Midi and the Association Numismatique Albigeoise collaborated on this piece tied to Albi, the Tarn prefecture best known as the seat of the 13th-century Albigensian Crusade against the Cathar heresy. The écu denomination itself is a deliberate archaism — the coin has no legal tender status and was struck purely for collector exchange at regional numismatic meets.
