| Obverse description | In the Belle Époque artistic style, two winter sports scenes are depicted in dynamic diagonal composition across the field: in the upper portion, a female tobogganer in period costume is shown airborne mid-run, rendered in high relief, while in the lower foreground a modern two-man bobsled crew is depicted at speed. The legend REPUBLIQUE FRANCAISE arcs along the upper rim, and the engraver's signature J. JIMENEZ appears in the lower right field. |
