| Obverse description | The royal monogram of King Albert I occupies the central field, surrounded by a raised circular border corresponding to the hole present in the final issued design. A French-language legend encircles the monogram, with the date appearing in the lower portion of the field. The overall composition is executed in low relief consistent with Belgian pattern coinage of the early twentieth century. |
