| Obverse description | Two allegorical nude figures — Mercury on the left holding a caduceus and a female figure on the right — flank a large terrestrial globe in the central field, with a radiant sunburst behind. The company name LA SPHÈRE appears as the legend at the top, with PARIS and the date 1865 on a ribbon scroll at the bottom. Peripheral legends read COMPAGNIE ANONYME on the left and D'ASSCES MARITIMES on the right; the engraver's signature PAYMALLE DIRECTEUR INVENIT appears in the lower exergue. |
