| Obverse description | Central field features the badge of the Légion d'honneur — a five-pointed star medal with ribbon and suspension — displayed beneath a heraldic shield bearing a wheel device. The denomination '2 DECIMES' appears prominently at the top of the field, flanked by the dual dates '1821' and '2021' on either side of the central motif. Below the medal, the legend 'ESSAI TRIAL' is inscribed in the lower central field. The circular legend 'Domaines Nationaux de Sainte-Hélène' runs along the left and right margins, and a beaded border frames the entire design. |

| Reverse description | At the top of the field, a crowned imperial cipher 'N' — the monogram of Napoléon Bonaparte — is displayed, the crown rendered in detail above the letter. Below, a rectangular vignette depicts Longwood House on Saint Helena set against a dramatic mountainous landscape, identifiable as the site of Napoleon's exile and death. The circular legend 'Bicentenaire Napoléon Bonaparte 1821-2021' runs around the lower periphery of the field, with the date '1821' appearing along the right margin. A beaded border encircles the entire reverse design. |
