| Obverse lettering | LOUIS II PRINCE DE MONACO L. MAUBERT |
| Reverse description | The full heraldic achievement of the Grimaldi family dominates the central field: the diamond-lozengy shield of Monaco, supporters comprising two armoured monks each grasping the mantle, surmounted by the princely crown. A ribbon below the shield bears the motto DEO JUVANTE. The denomination CINQ CENTS FRANCS is inscribed in two arched lines across the upper field, and the date 1934 appears in the exergue. The word ESSAI is placed within the legend, identifying this as a trial piece. A beaded border surrounds the entire composition. |
