| Reverse description | Central denomination numeral and legend occupy the field, with two stylised wheat ears arranged symmetrically beneath the face value, and a bunch of grapes with two leaves arching above. The design is executed in a clean, modernist style characteristic of French essay coinage of the interwar period. The word ESSAI below the denomination confirms the trial or pattern status of the piece, with the date 1933 placed at the bottom of the reverse. |
