| Reverse description | A large five-pointed star dominates the reverse field, its surface filled with fine radiating lines creating a striated sunburst effect within each arm. A central round hole pierces the star at its midpoint. The denomination '5' appears in the upper left field and 'Cmes' (centimes) in the upper right, flanking the star's apex. Five small five-pointed stars are arranged in an arc along the lower periphery of the field. The date is inscribed in the exergue below the star, with a beaded border encircling the entire design. |
