Obverse description The upper field depicts a panoramic view of the Marseille harbour skyline with the Basilica of Notre-Dame de la Garde visible on the hilltop. In the lower field, a dense crowd of figures in high relief is shown disembarking from a vessel, with rigging, masts, and anchor chains rendered in detail, evoking the return of repatriates and soldiers from Algeria. A bold inscription in raised relief occupies the central field.
