There are two variants of this coin.
One with the traditional Sigma: https://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/btv1b8516319k  (this one being SNG France 2004)
and one with an angular version, similar to the so-called lunate sigma: https://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/btv1b85163185 (this one is SNG France 2003)

Here it is the angular sigma, corresponding to BMC numbers 62-65:
