| Obverse description | The field features a large cross-shaped hole forming a Swiss cross in the centre, surrounded by billowing smoke clouds on either side. A radiant sunburst emanates from above the cross. The circular legend reads MOUSQUETAIRES around the upper field and LOCLE at the base, underlined. |

| Reverse description | The reverse surrounds the central cross hole with a richly detailed trophy of arms: crossed flags, rifle stocks, and a fasces-like bundle in the upper field, flanked by a laurel branch to the left and a palm branch to the right. A powder flask, satchel, and shooting target are visible in the lower field, with a hammer and tongs below. A feathered hat surmounts the composition at the top. |
