| Reverse description | The central field features the bold denomination '5 FRANCS' in large Art Deco lettering, with the word 'ESSAI' inscribed in small capitals immediately below. Flanking the denomination on the left is a sheaf of wheat with a cluster of grapes, and on the right a palm frond with a pine cone, symbolising agricultural abundance. The republican motto 'LIBERTE · EGALITE · FRATERNITE' curves along the upper rim in two lines, while 'PAIX TRAVAIL' (Peace and Labour) is inscribed in the lower field, all within a beaded inner border. |
