| Obverse description | Central allegorical composition depicting Strasbourg's industrial and commercial heritage, featuring the Cathedral of Strasbourg and the exhibition hall in the background along the Rhine riverbank, with a tugboat navigating the river in the middle ground. In the foreground, a steam locomotive is prominently rendered alongside a large cogwheel, symbolising industrial progress. A blacksmith is shown at his anvil, evoking the artisanal and manufacturing trades celebrated at the 1895 exposition. The design is rendered in a richly detailed, relief style combining architectural, nautical, and industrial motifs. The bilingual legend in the field reads in French and German, commemorating the centenary of the 1895 Industry and Commerce Exhibition. |
