| Obverse description | Laureate and draped bust of a military commander facing three-quarters forward to the left, set within an incuse circular border; a small tower device appears beneath the effigy, serving as an identifying symbol of the besieged city. The denomination '20' and the legend 'M DE SVRVILLE' are inscribed in the field, identifying the issuing authority. The engraving is hand-executed in a rudimentary but characteristic emergency coinage style. |
