| Beschrijving voorzijde | The crowned coat of arms of the city of Amiens occupies the central field, supported on either side by unicorns. The shield displays a heraldic composition featuring an ivy plant and lilies. The issuer name and manufacturer attribution appear in the legend along the upper periphery, with the date in the lower field. The design is rendered in a crisp, formal heraldic style typical of French municipal emergency coinage of the early twentieth century. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Following the destruction wrought across northern France during the First World War, the Banque de France faced a severe small-denomination coin shortage that the central government was slow to address. Local chambers of commerce stepped in, issuing their own emergency nécessité tokens — a practice with French precedent stretching back to earlier crises. Amiens, whose cathedral city had sat dangerously close to the front lines, was among dozens of provincial chambers authorized to produce these stopgap pieces.
The three catalogue references correspond to distinct die varieties struck across the issue's production run, a detail worth noting for type collectors working this series.
