Reverse description A raised rectangular frame, itself set within a larger octagonal stamped depression on the plain silver planchet, encloses the denomination rendered in two horizontal lines: the weight designation '4.0.' (four ounces) in the upper register and the monetary value '18F·40C·' (18 francs, 40 centimes) in the lower register. The lettering is bold and functional, consistent with the utilitarian character of French Napoleonic siege coinage. The surrounding field is flat and unworked, reflecting the emergency nature of production.
