Large silver jeton of 920 thousandths fineness, struck for the Chamber of Commerce of Lyon. The obverse was engraved by Oscar Roty, the renowned engraver.
The obverse legend IN TENVI LABOR AT TENVIS NON GLORIA translates as: ‘The task is small, but the glory is not.’
This is a quote from Virgil (Georgics, IV, 6), often used to express that a seemingly modest subject can give rise to great work or merit.
