| Obverse description | Highly stylized portrait of Gustave Eiffel rendered in a geometric, low-polygon artistic style, occupying the majority of the field. The engineer's bearded bust faces slightly to the right, his features composed of interlocking triangular facets that evoke modern digital design while referencing the iron latticework of his famous structures. Behind the portrait, the structural ironwork of the Eiffel Tower extends across the upper right portion of the field, rendered in fine detail. The legend GUSTAVE EIFFEL 1832 - 1923 arcs along the left rim, while the Republican monogram RF, styled with riveted dot lettering recalling ironwork construction, appears in the lower right field. |

| Reverse description | Dynamic composition centred on a bold, close-up view of the Eiffel Tower's ironwork framework rendered from below, filling the field with intricate latticework detail. To the left, the internal iron armature of the Statue of Liberty is depicted, referencing Eiffel's engineering contribution to that monument. To the right, an early biplane is shown in flight, evoking the pioneering aeronautical experiments conducted at the Eiffel Tower. Birds in flight and clouds populate the lower field. The denomination 50 € is rendered in large riveted numerals at the bottom of the field, with the date 2023 inscribed along the lower right rim. |
