Obverse description Detailed engraving of the French ironclad warship La Gloire shown in broadside profile to the right, her three masts fully rigged with furled sails and an intricate network of rigging rendered in fine relief. The hull is depicted with characteristic riveted iron plating shown in a textured pattern occupying the lower half of the field, separated from the vessel's waterline by a twisted rope motif. The ship's name LA GLOIRE appears prominently in raised letters across the lower field, with the Republican monogram RF inscribed below.
