| Obverse description | The obverse presents a finely detailed high-relief bust of Napoléon Bonaparte in three-quarter profile facing left, depicted wearing his iconic bicorne hat with gold-coloured enamel highlights and a decorative cockade. His uniform collar and epaulettes are rendered with intricate engraved detail. The overall coin blank is shaped to follow the silhouette of the bicorne hat surmounting the bust, giving the piece a distinctive sculptural quality. The entire composition is executed in the antique silver finish with selectively applied colour, emphasising the hat against the polished field of the portrait. |
