| Reverse description | The arms of Lyon — a shield bearing a lion rampant beneath a chief semy of fleurs-de-lis — set on an elaborate cartouche crowned with a flaming helm and foliate mantling. The shield is supported on the left by a bearded, nude river god (the Rhône) leaning on a rock from which water flows, and on the right by a nude female river allegory (the Saône) reclining with an urn. The lower field is separated by a horizontal line above a decorative foliate ornament. The reverse is without inscription. |
