| Obverse description | Detailed relief depiction of the Sacré-Cœur Basilica in Paris dominates the field, with the legend 'FRANCE' arching across the upper border and 'PARIS: SACRÉ-COEUR' along the lower border. A gilded inset coin — a French 5 centimes piece dated 1970 bearing the legend 'LIBERTÉ ÉGALITÉ FRATERNITÉ' — is set into the center of the design, partially overlapping the architectural relief. |
