    Along the edge of the coin on the left side is the French inscription 'L'ETRANGER', meaning 'THE STRANGER'. In the central part, on the left, there is a rocky shore, a sailing ship, and a bright space above it. On the right is a symbolic depiction of a shadow in the form of a solid 'dark' space, from which the figure of the book's main character is receding. At the bottom center are the symbols 'RF' — the mintmark for France on European Union coins.
