| Reverse description | Central design features a composite heraldic shield displaying the Gallic rooster standing upon a quartered escutcheon charged with fleurs-de-lis, surmounted by a royal crown rendered in fine detail. Two additional heraldic shields appear in the field to the left and right, each bearing fleurs-de-lis and striped elements evoking the arms of France. Radiating lines behind the central composition suggest sunburst imagery. A laurel branch frames the lower portion of the design. The surrounding circular legend reads • 2000 ANS D'HISTOIRE • MONÉTAIRE FRANÇAISE •. |
