| Obverse description | A allegorical female figure, partially draped, seated on clouds and holding aloft a scepter topped with an Occitan cross, serves as the central device. Below, a panoramic view of the city of Toulouse with its recognizable skyline and arched bridge is rendered in low relief. The engraver's signature 'Georges Guiraud' appears in the right field, with the legend 'VILLE DE TOULOUSE' arcing along the upper rim. |
