| Obverse description | Detailed colored relief depiction of the Phare du Bout du Monde (Lighthouse at the End of the World) near La Rochelle, shown as a distinctive stilted structure rising above the sea, with a domed lantern room at the top. Colorful enamel elements render the sky in blue, coastal rocks in ochre and crimson, and the surrounding waters in deep blue. The legend arcs around the upper border of the coin. |
