| Reverse description | The reverse presents a richly detailed high-relief scene evoking the French Revolutionary period, depicting a procession of figures in period costume, including a prominent female figure in the foreground bearing a pike or staff, with further marching citizens and soldiers receding into the background. Behind the figures, the battlemented silhouette of the Bastille fortress is visible amid stylized smoke or clouds. To the upper portion of the field, the denomination '5' appears prominently above the legend 'EURO'. To the left field, in a secondary cartouche, the historical date '1793' and the inscription 'SIX LIVRES' appear, referencing the six-livres écu of the First French Republic whose anniversary this issue commemorates. |
