| Reverse description | The denomination 20 FRANCS is displayed in two lines at the centre of the field, enclosed within a wreath composed of laurel and oak branches tied at the base with a ribbon. The mint mark and year of issue appear below the denomination within the wreath. The whole is surrounded by a toothed border. The design is clean and classically restrained, consistent with early July Monarchy coinage. |
