| Reverse description | An ermine passant to the left stands in a grassy meadow, wearing a collar adorned with a scarf bearing two triangular pennant-shaped flames with spotted markings, the traditional heraldic emblem of Brittany. Behind the animal, a stylized hillside or mound is depicted, with small clouds in the sky above. The date 1679 and the word BRETAGNE appear in the lower exergue area, with the motto legend surrounding the field. |
