| Beschrijving voorzijde | Three conjoined busts in left profile, overlapping in descending order from left to right: Georges Clémenceau, Raymond Poincaré, and Aristide Briand, rendered in high relief with considerable sculptural depth. The legend arcs around the upper and lower periphery, naming each statesman. A small decorative olive branch motif appears in the lower field beneath the busts. The portraits are modeled in a naturalistic, medallic style befitting a commemorative issue honoring the three principal architects of the 1919 peace. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Struck to mark the tenth anniversary of the Treaty of Versailles, this piece was issued as a module — a medallic format using the dimensions and weight of a circulation coin without being released for general commerce. Pierre Turin's design had already appeared on the regular 10 Francs issue of 1929, making this commemorative a deliberate political gesture rather than a practical monetary instrument. The French government used occasions like this to assert postwar prestige at a moment when the franc itself had only just been stabilized under Poincaré's 1928 monetary reforms.
