Commemorative issue
100th anniversary of the death of Gustave Eiffel
Obverse
Portrait of Gustave Eiffel in front of an arch of the tower that bears his name. The portrait has been worked so that the facial features, hair and clothing are made of rivets, as if Gustave Eiffel were one with the metal structures he imagined throughout his life.
Script: Latin
Lettering:
GUSTAVE EIFFEL 1832 - 1923

Unabridged legend: République Française
Reverse
The reverse of the coin features representations of some of the architect's major works.
At its center, the Eiffel Tower seen from above divides the design into several zones. In the space to the left, the Statue of Liberty reveals its skeleton. Above the top of the tower, the Garabit viaduct can be seen. On the right is the plan of Gustave Eiffel's aircraft, the LE. Finally, below the tower, the Maria Pia de Porto bridge straddles the face value.
