| Obverse description | Three workmen depicted in high relief assembling ironwork girders near the top of the Eiffel Tower, with the Parisian skyline visible far below. A horizontal cross girder in the lower field bears the incused date '1900', and the maker's monogram 'CAM' appears beneath it to the left. The scene captures the construction atmosphere in a dynamic, naturalistic composition. |
