| Obverse description | The central device depicts two robed monks facing each other and raising tankards in a toast: the left figure is short and stocky, wearing a habit adorned with a cross, while the right figure is tall and lean. To the left of the scene a Maltese cross appears in relief, and to the right a heraldic shield bearing a cross. The curved legend in Fraktur blackletter script reads 'La Brasserie des Templiers' along the upper periphery, with 'Marseille' inscribed in script at the base. |

| Reverse description | The standard Monnaie de Paris tourist token reverse features a hexagonal central device enclosing a depiction of the Monnaie de Paris building facade above the legend 'MONNAIE DE PARIS', with the engraver's initials 'EVM' in the lower field. A ring of 27 stars surrounds the hexagon, and 'FRANCE 2011' appears at the top between the stars and the outer legend. The peripheral legend renders the word 'France' in eight languages separated by tildes. |
