| Obverse description | The inner disc features a three-quarter facing portrait of Abbé Pierre, rendered in relief and positioned slightly left of centre, depicted wearing his characteristic beret; to the right appears the logo of the Fondation Abbé Pierre, incorporating micro-lettering bearing the motto 'Et les autres?' The curved legend 'CENTENAIRE DE LA NAISSANCE DE L'ABBÉ PIERRE' arcs along the upper periphery of the inner disc, while the date '2012' appears in the lower field. The cornucopia mintmark of the Monnaie de Paris and the initials 'RF' (République Française) are positioned to the left of the portrait, with the engraver's fleurette hallmark to the right. The outer ring carries the twelve stars of the European Union in relief against a smooth field. |
