| Obverse description | The elaborately rendered coat of arms of the city of Le Havre occupies the central field, featuring a salamander on a brazier surmounted by three fleurs-de-lis and a mural crown, flanked by sheaves of wheat, oak branches, and palm fronds. A ribbon scroll below bears the civic motto, with a marine anchor at the base. The legend VILLE DU HAVRE arcs across the upper field on banners, and the maker's signature LECOMTE. A. NOËL. ROUEN appears in the lower exergue. |
