PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Adapted from the immortal Génie de Dupré, this type is characteristic of the beginnings of the Third Republic: the symbols and icons of the founding republic are recalled; the beam of the lictor, symbol of the unity of the nation is no longer surmounted by the sinister Phrygian cap of the guillotineers but by a hand of justice.
On the edge in relief: GOD PROTECT FRANCE
OBVERSE :
Description: Winged genie of the Republic standing right, holding a stylus in front of a table of Law on a cippe, flanked by a beam surmounted by a hand of Justice on the left and on the right by a cockerel turned to the left; signed Dupré cursive at the exergue.
Note that the table reads: CONSTITUTION
Caption: FRENCH REPUBLIC.
REVERSE :
Description: 100 FRANCS on two lines followed by the year 1879 in a closed and continuous oak crown, workshop letter A under the crown between the different REGIE DES MONNAIES.
Legend: LIBERTE EGALITE FRATERNITE.
