| Obverse description | Bimetallic striking trial (essai de frappe) issued by the Monnaie de Paris, with no figurative design. The central plug, struck in a silver-toned alloy, bears the inscription 'DE' in raised capital letters at the centre of an otherwise plain field. The legend 'ESSAI DE FRAPPE' is distributed around the junction of the inner plug and the outer golden-toned ring, with 'ESSAI' arching across the upper portion and 'FRAPPE' along the lower, flanked on each side by a small raised star device at the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock positions. |
