| Obverse description | The obverse features an ornate decorative border composed of a magic wand trailing a scroll of stars, interspersed with objects drawn from European children's fairy tales. At the center, the face value '20 €' is prominently displayed alongside the mintmark of the Monnaie de Paris and the national motto 'LIBERTÉ ÉGALITÉ FRATERNITÉ'. Below the central device, the date '2002', the 'RF' monogram for République Française, and the classic fairy-tale incipit 'IL ÉTAIT UNE FOIS ...' appear in the lower field. The overall design evokes a whimsical, storybook aesthetic befitting the coin's commemorative theme. |
