| Obverse description | Plain field dominated by a central raised concentric circle device, flanked on either side by the initials 'R' and 'F' in large serif capitals. The circular legend 'MONNAIE DE PARIS' runs around the periphery in raised Latin letters, upper and lower arcs, separated by the flanking initials. The overall design is that of a mint trial planchet test strike, with a deliberately simplified, unadorned composition typical of essai de frappe pieces. |
