| Obverse description | The obverse features a three-quarter facing portrait of Baron Pierre de Coubertin, founder of the modern Olympic Games, rendered in high relief against a dynamic background depicting stylised athletic figures in motion — including a runner, a discus thrower, and a walking figure — evoking the spirit of Olympic sport. The monogram 'RF' (République Française) appears in the lower left field, with the date '2013' immediately below. The legend 'PIERRE DE COUBERTIN' arcs along the upper rim of the inner disc. The outer copper-nickel ring is adorned with the twelve stars of the European Union. |
