Obverse description Central field features a stylized depiction of a gendarme's bicorne hat (chapeau de gendarme) in profile, rendered in relief. Below the hat, a small decorative floral or foliate ornament appears at the base. The legend BÔNE arcs above the central device, with ALGERIE inscribed below, and the full circular peripheral legend reads VIGNOBLE DU CHAPEAU DE GENDARME encircling the design. The overall style is typical of French colonial emergency token coinage of the late 19th to early 20th century.
