| Reverse description | Finely detailed depiction of the five-masted steel sailing barque France II under full sail, shown three-quarter view at sea with billowing clouds in the background and a harbour with industrial structures visible in the right field. A ribbon banner inscribed 'FRANCE II' arcs across the upper portion of the design, while a circular portrait medallion of Victor Lagniel, the ship's commander, appears at the upper right with his name inscribed below. A mint mark is visible in the lower central field, and the overall scene is executed in richly layered relief characteristic of proof commemorative coinage. |
