Obverse description Central shield bearing the quartered arms of Austria-Burgundy — comprising fleurs-de-lis, a rampant lion, and a diagonal bend — set within a cartouche and surmounted by an open crown with arched fleurs. The heraldic composition is rendered in the mannered style typical of late sixteenth-century Flemish coinage. A circular Latin legend runs along the periphery, separated from the central device by a beaded inner border.
