| Reverse description | The reverse carries no independent printed design; the sheet was printed on one side only, and the thin paper stock allows a strong offset impression of the obverse to show through in mirror image. The 'DOMAINES NATIONAUX' heading, the royal portrait vignette, and the body text are all discernible in reverse, a characteristic and well-documented feature of French Revolutionary-era assignat production. |
