| Obverse description | A large royal crown occupies the central field, rendered in low relief with a decorative band ornamented by a row of pellets and alternating round and square bosses. Three fleurons surmount the crown, the central one being the most prominent. The design is enclosed by a beaded border running along the coin's periphery. The strike, typical of hammered coinage of the period, is irregular and somewhat flat in areas. |
