| Obverse description | Left-facing draped bust of Marianne, the allegorical personification of the French Republic, rendered in high relief with an elaborate coiled and braided hairstyle adorned with a decorative rosette. The engraver's signature G.B.L. BAZOR appears in small characters below the truncation. The date 19 56 is divided on either side of the bust in the upper field, with two stylized ears of grain flanking the portrait. The circular legend REPUBLIQUE FRANCAISE runs along the lower periphery. |
