| Obverse description | Stylized depiction of the baptism of Clovis I at Reims, rendered in a medieval artistic style. At center, the crowned figure of Clovis stands immersed in a baptismal font, hands clasped in prayer, flanked on the left by a haloed figure and on the right by a bishop in pontifical vestments raising his hand in benediction. The legend REIMS 498 arcs across the upper field, referencing the location and traditional date of the baptism. The republican monogram RF appears to the left field, while the date 2016 is inscribed vertically to the right. The denomination 50 EURO is engraved in the lower field, with the Monnaie de Paris mint mark visible nearby. |

| Reverse description | Frontal bust portrait of Queen Clotilde, depicted wearing a pointed crown and a veil falling to her shoulders, rendered in a stylized medieval effigy manner. Her draped neckline bears an ornamental jeweled collar, and her solemn, idealized facial features evoke Merovingian iconography. A ring of raised dots encircles the effigy, forming a decorative border within the textured field. The inscription REINE CLOTILDE arcs around the left and upper right of the field in large capital letters, while her regnal dates 474 - 545 are engraved in the lower exergue. |
