| Obverse description | Draped bust of Marianne facing right, wearing a crested helmet adorned with a rooster atop the crest, laurel branches, and a radiant sun motif on the side. The hair flows loosely behind the neck in a classical style. The engraver's signature 'Alard' appears in small letters beneath the bust in the lower field. The circular legend 'REPUBLIQUE FRANÇAISE' frames the effigy, running along the inner rim from left to right. |
