| Obverse description | A rampant lion facing left, seated beneath an ornate Gothic canopy, flanked on either side by the Gothic initial letter B, denoting the Bruges mint. The design is executed in the late medieval Flemish hammered style, with bold relief typical of the period. The peripheral legend is rendered in Gothic lettering within a beaded border. |
