Obverse description Typeset bon régional printed in dark blue-grey on light blue paper, with an ornate foliate and acanthus border framing the entire face. The series number and serial appear in a ruled panel at the top, with the denomination '0,50' at upper right; the central text block carries the title 'BON RÉGIONAL' and the guarantee clause naming 175 occupied communes of the Départements du Nord, de l'Aisne et de l'Oise, above the large letterpress legend 'CINQUANTE CENTIMES'. The place and date 'Fourmies, le 8 Mai 1916' are followed by two manuscript signatures of the delegates of the Comité de Contrôle, and a lower panel notes that validity requires the official cachet of the Comité de Contrôle; a red control stamp is visible at left.
