To the left of the denomination, laboratory glassware associated with Pasteur's scientific work — including a long-necked flask and a round-bottomed vessel — are depicted in low relief, evoking his renowned microbiological experiments. The republican motto LIBERTE EGALITE FRATERNITE is distributed in three segments along the upper periphery of the coin. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued to mark the centenary of Pasteur's death in 1895, this coin was part of France's broader commemorative program that ran through the mid-1990s under the authority of the Monnaie de Paris. Pasteur died on September 28, 1895, at Villeneuve-l'Étang, partially paralyzed from a series of strokes that had begun in 1868 — a condition he had worked around for nearly three decades while producing some of his most consequential research.
The .920 fineness is a deliberate nod to historical French gold coinage standards rather than the modern .999 norm.
