| Reverse description | The central round hole is flanked on each side by the denomination '5 CMES' (5 centimes), the lettering underlined by a horizontal rule. The word 'ESSAI' (trial/essay) appears between the rule and the 'C' of 'CMES', identifying this as a pattern strike. The republican motto 'LIBERTÉ· ÉGALITÉ FRATERNITÉ' is inscribed in an arc above the hole, while the date '1914' is placed in the exergue below. The reverse layout is spare and legible, emphasising the denomination and civic legend in a balanced arrangement. |
