| Reverse description | The prominent Cross of Lorraine, symbol of the Free French Forces, dominates the central field, with the denomination '50 CMES' flanking the lower arm of the cross on either side. The date 1943 appears in the exergue, flanked by two decorative floral ornaments. The mint mark 'SA' is positioned above the cross. A scrolled ribbon banner bearing the legend HONNEUR · LIBERTÉ · ÉGALITÉ · PATRIE · FRATERNITÉ curves around the upper portion of the design, with the engraver's initials 'C.L.S.' below the cross. The design is enclosed within a beaded border. |
