| Obverse description | Draped bust of Marianne, personification of the French Republic, facing left, wearing a Phrygian helmet adorned with a serpent crest and curled hair visible beneath. The effigy, engraved by Augustin Dupré, is rendered in a refined neoclassical style with fine drapery at the truncation. The circular legend reads REPUBLIQUE FRANÇAISE flanking the bust, with the engraver's signature DUPRE inscribed in the lower field. The broad, obliquely reeded rim frames the design prominently. |
