| Obverse description | Printed in red on plain paper, the obverse is dominated by a central vignette of a fasces — the classical Roman symbol of authority — surmounted by an axe head, flanked symmetrically by laurel branches on the left and oak branches on the right. The abbreviated issuing authority and denomination inscriptions are arranged around the vignette, with the denomination '25 centimes' and date '1917' positioned at the lower right within a simple single-line rectangular border. |
