| Obverse description | Plain field bearing a five-line inscription arranged concentrically across the centre of the coin, reading CHAMBRE / DE / COMMERCE / DE / BÔNE in raised capital letters. The word COMMERCE dominates the central zone in the largest lettering, with DE appearing twice in smaller characters above and below it. The legend is flanked on either side of the lower line by raised pellets, and the entire design is enclosed within a continuous inner border of evenly spaced raised beads set just within the rim. The overall treatment is typographic and strictly utilitarian, consistent with World War I-era emergency necessity coinage issued by French colonial chambers of commerce. |
