| Reverse description | A short floriated triple cross occupies the center of the field, with a briquet (fire-steel) at its intersection. The four angles of the cross are filled with alternating briquets and crowns, heraldic devices emblematic of the Burgundian Order of the Golden Fleece. The surrounding circular legend names Philip by his titles in abbreviated Latin. The overall design reflects the standard Burgundian cross-type florin coinage of the period. |
