| Reverse description | Central design features the crowned oval shield of France bearing three fleurs-de-lis in the French royal arrangement, flanked by two sceptres — a main sceptre and a hand of justice — crossed behind the escutcheon. The royal crown above the shield is rendered with fine detail. The circular Latin legend CHRS • REGN • VINC • IMP ★ surrounds the composition, referencing the Christus Regnat motto, with the mint mark BB for Strasbourg appearing in the lower exergual area. The bold, well-centered design reflects the high-relief minting standards of the period. |
