| Reverse description | Central imperial coat of arms surmounted by a crown, flanked by elaborate heraldic mantling and crossed sceptres, with a papal tiara at the top emitting rays above the word LOYOLA — a satirical reference to Jesuit influence. The banners on either side bear the inscriptions LOURDES and SALETTE, alluding to clerical pilgrimages. The denomination 5 F and date 1874 appear in the lower field, flanked by a star and a rooster, with ESSAI to the right. |
