A revolutionary-era assignat issued under the law of 4 January 1792, 'year 4 of Liberty', backed by confiscated national lands (Domaines Nationaux). It shows the all-seeing eye and a Gallic cockerel with the motto 'La Liberté ou la Mort', bears the hand signature of Hervé, carries the stern warning that counterfeiters would be punished by death, and has a blank reverse.
