| Obverse description | Central field features the municipal coat of arms of Carcassonne, depicting a fortified castle or city walls surmounted by a mural crown, flanked on either side by decorative laurel or olive branches tied at the base. The legend CARCASSONNE arcs along the upper periphery, with the date 1917 appearing below the shield between the branch ends. The design is rendered in low relief characteristic of wartime emergency coinage produced by a commercial die-maker. |
