| Reverse description | Large portrait bust of Voltaire facing three-quarters right, depicted with characteristic period wig and expressive features rendered in finely detailed relief against a burnished field. To the left of the portrait, a multiline inscription reproduces the celebrated optimistic refrain from Candide arranged in stacked lines. The denomination 50 EURO appears to the right, with Voltaire's signature facsimile below the bust. The date 2014 and the Monnaie de Paris mint mark appear in the lower exergue. |
