| Obverse description | The obverse bears the colonial inscription arranged in a circular format across the field: the word COLONIE curves along the upper arc, DE LA REUNION occupies the central horizontal register, and the date 1920 curves along the lower arc. The design is plain and typographic in character, without any effigy or emblematic device, reflecting the utilitarian nature of this emergency issue. The legends are incuse-struck in capital Latin letters within a hexagonal flan. |
