| Obverse description | Left-facing effigy of Grand Duke Jean of Luxembourg (1921–2019, reigned 1964–2000), rendered in high relief. The word ESSAI appears in the field behind the portrait, denoting trial-piece status. A continuous legend encircles the bust, and the engraver's signature J.N. LEFEVRE is inscribed in the lower field. The composition is executed in a refined, medallic style characteristic of mid-twentieth-century Belgian die work. |
