| Obverse description | Central field displays the denomination inscription 'Soldi due' rendered in flowing cursive script within a raised circular border, giving the legend a distinctly ornate, calligraphic character. The surrounding outer legend reads 'NAZIONE * PIEMONTESE *' in Latin capitals, separated by five-pointed star stops. The overall design is plain and typographic in style, with no figural or allegorical imagery, reflecting the republican austerity of the Subalpine period. |

| Reverse description | Central device features a prominent equilateral triangle — a Masonic and republican symbol of equality — surmounted by a Phrygian liberty cap, the whole flanked by laurel and oak branches tied at the base with a ribbon bow. The date 'A.9' (Anno 9 of the French Republican calendar, corresponding to 1800–1801) appears within the lower portion of the triangle. The outer legend reads 'LIBERTÀ EGUAGLIANZA' in Latin capitals, distributed around the periphery, expressing the revolutionary ideals of Liberty and Equality. |
