Obverse description Central field features a crowned Gothic monogram, likely combining the initials of Mary of Burgundy, set within a beaded inner circle. The monogram is rendered in a bold, angular Gothic style characteristic of late 15th-century Burgundian coinage. The surrounding legend, partially legible due to the hammered and irregular flan, reads MARIA DVCISS BG BR Z LI, identifying the issuer as Mary, Duchess of Burgundy, Brabant, Zeeland, and Luxembourg. The coin's surface exhibits the uneven strike typical of hammered billon coinage of this period.
