| Obverse description | A single stylized wheat ear is depicted upright in the center of the field, rendered in a spare, modernist style characteristic of mid-twentieth-century French coinage design. The legend REPUBLIQUE FRANCAISE arcs along the upper periphery in raised Latin capitals. The overall composition is austere, with minimal relief and a granular milled field surface typical of essai or epreuve pieces of this period. |
