| Reverse description | A floriated cross with trefoil terminals divides the field into four quarters; the upper two quarters each contain a crowned Gothic letter L, the personal initial of Louis XII, while the lower two quarters each bear a porcupine passant, the royal badge. The cross arms are elaborately decorated with floral motifs. The peripheral legend in uncial Gothic characters encircles the design within a beaded border. |
