| Beschrijving keerzijde | The denomination 25c. is displayed in large, bold raised numerals and lettering at the centre of the field, with horizontal line engraving filling the interior of the figures. A circular legend surrounds the denomination, reading · VALABLE · at the top and JUSQU'AU 31 DÉCEMBRE 1920 continuing around the lower arc, separated by raised dot stops, indicating the validity period of this emergency issue. The plain square flan with rounded corners provides a utilitarian frame consistent with wartime and post-war nécessité coinage practice. |

Albi's municipal token issue of 1920 belongs to a wave of emergency small change produced by French towns, chambers of commerce, and local authorities during and immediately after World War I, when the hoarding of metal coinage created a crippling shortage of circulating fractions. The French government's own production could not keep pace, and hundreds of municipalities filled the gap with locally sanctioned issues. Nickel-plated iron was a deliberate wartime and postwar economy — copper and nickel had both been heavily requisitioned for the war effort.
The El Monedero reference (10.3) suggests at least minor catalogued varieties exist for this type.
