| Obverse description | Laureate bust of Napoleon I facing left, depicted with short hair beneath a classical laurel wreath, rendered in high relief in the neoclassical style. The neck is bare and the portrait is strongly modelled, typical of the Empire period coinage. The circumferential legend reads NAPOLEON EMPEREUR, running from lower left to upper right, with the engraver's signature below the truncation. A fine dentilated border surrounds the entire design. |
