Reverse description French-language face of this wartime municipal bon, mirroring the obverse layout for the Francophone community, with the heading 'Sous garantie de l'état et de la Ville' and denomination 'Bon de guerre de 100 Francs 100' in letterpress. The text declares the note payable on demand at the communal cashier ('caisse communale de Menin') and identifies the issuing authority as Flandre Occidentale, Ville de Menin. The engraving, attributed to A. Pardoen and R. Vandevoorde, maintains the same restrained typographic style as the obverse.
