| Obverse description | Bare-headed effigy of Louis XVI facing left, hair dressed and tied at the nape with a ribbon, in the neoclassical style engraved by Duvivier. The mint year appears in the exergue beneath the truncation of the bust. The encircling legend, commencing at approximately the seven o'clock position, reads LOUIS XVI ROI DES FRANÇOIS with the date flanked by pellets. The portrait is rendered with fine detail characteristic of late Ancien Régime medallic art, reflecting the constitutional monarchy period. |
