| Obverse description | Left-facing effigy of Marianne wearing a winged Phrygian cap, rendered in the allegorical Republican tradition. Four sailing vessels appear in the background field, evoking France's maritime and colonial presence. The date appears below the bust in the exergue area. The encircling legend reads REPUBLIQUE FRANÇAISE and UNION FRANÇAISE, with the engraver's signature L.BAZOR and the essai designation GB ESSAI flanking the bust. The design reflects the post-war reaffirmation of French Republican and Union values. |
