| Obverse description | A dynamic maritime scene in high relief depicting a large sailing vessel with full sails in the foreground and a second sailboat in the middle distance, with seagulls in flight above choppy waves. In the lower right, a crewed rowing boat with several figures is depicted amid the surf. The upper border is framed by a decorative arrangement of a seashell flanked by seaweed and algae sprays. The legend 'ORAN 1914' appears prominently in the field, with the engraver's signature 'J.P.LEGASTELOIS' inscribed along the lower rim. |
