Obverse description Central round perforation flanked by the large interlaced monogram 'RF' (République Française), rendered in bold relief against a plain field. A Phrygian liberty cap surmounts the monogram above the hole, its profile facing left with finely engraved detail. The entire design is encircled by a wreath of oak leaves and acorns tied at the base, with the engraver's signature EM LINDAUER incuse along the lower rim within the wreath. A braided cable border frames the outer edge of the coin.

Reverse description The central round perforation bisects the denomination numeral '25' above and the abbreviation 'CMES' (centimes) below, the latter without a dash beneath 'MES' — the distinguishing feature of this variety. The republican motto 'LIBERTÉ·ÉGALITÉ FRATERNITÉ' arcs across the upper field as the principal legend, while the date appears in the lower exergual area. The design is enframed by a plain border, maintaining a clean, utilitarian aesthetic consistent with the coin's Art Nouveau-influenced style.
