| Obverse description | At left center, an intaglio portrait of engineer and industrialist Gustave Eiffel (1832–1923) set against a vignette of the Garabit viaduct; intricate guilloche underprint in warm ochre and brown tones frames the composition, with a stylized geometric rendering of the Eiffel Tower structure occupying the lower portion of the note. The denomination and issuer inscriptions appear in letterpress at upper and lower margins, complementing the highly detailed architectural imagery. |
