| Reverse description | A fully armored equestrian figure is depicted in bold relief, charging dynamically to the right and dividing the inner beaded circle. The knight wears a plumed helmet and carries a lance, with flowing drapery and horse mane rendered in vigorous, energetic detail characteristic of Turin's sculptural style. The motto DEO JUVANTE arcs across the upper field, while the denomination 50 FRANCS is prominently displayed in the lower portion of the field. The word ESSAI appears within the legend, confirming the trial strike status of this piece. |
