| Obverse description | Bare-headed portrait bust of Louis XVIII facing left, rendered in high relief with finely detailed flowing hair. The engraver's signature ANDRIEU.F. appears incuse on the lower truncation of the neck. The surrounding legend reads LOUIS XVIII ROI DE FRANCE, distributed around the upper and lower periphery. A beaded border frames the entire design. The portrait exhibits the neoclassical style characteristic of Andrieu's work during the First Restoration. |
