| Reverse description | The reverse depicts the front elevation of a requisitioned Paris taxicab advancing toward the viewer, with columns of soldiers marching in the background to evoke the troop movements during the Battle of the Marne in September 1914. The commemorative legend 'LES TAXIS DE LA MARNE' arcs prominently across the upper field, while the denomination '50 EURO' and the dual date '1914 2014' appear in the lower field, marking the centenary of the engagement. The composition is rendered in a detailed, relief style consistent with Monnaie de Paris commemorative issues. |
