| Reverse description | The reverse features a dramatic perspective view of the full Eiffel Tower rising from the lower left, rendered in fine detail to commemorate the centenary of its construction. The four-line inscription TOUR EIFFEL 1889 1989 is positioned to the right of the tower, referencing both the original year of completion and the centennial year of issue. The engraver's signature F. JOUBERT appears in the lower field. The overall composition is clean and uncluttered, with the tower dominating the left portion of the field against a plain background. |
