| Obverse description | At left, a classical allegorical female figure seated in a three-quarter pose, draped in robes and wearing a wheat-sheaf crown, rendered as an intaglio vignette in the tradition of 19th-century engraving. The national coat of arms appears to the upper right, flanked by the large numeral '2' in an ornate cartouche. The central text panel carries the denomination 'DEUX GOURDES' in bold letterpress, with the issue date 'OCTOBRE 1884' below, and the heading 'REPUBLIQUE D'HAITI' with the motto 'LIBERTE - EGALITE - FRATERNITE' across the top. |
