| Obverse description | Laureate and draped bust of Louis XIV facing right, with long flowing wig rendered in fine detail. The king is depicted in a mature, regal portrait characteristic of the later years of his reign. The circumferential Latin legend reads LVD•XIIII•D•G FR•ET•NAV•REX, denoting his titles as King of France and Navarre by the Grace of God. The field is relatively plain, with the portrait occupying the central area in high relief. The coin is bordered by a toothed inner rim running the full circumference. |
