| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field features a long cross with splayed terminals dividing the inner area into four quarters, each containing an alerion, the armorial charge of the Dukes of Lorraine, rendered in a stylized hammered relief. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The surrounding marginal legend reads DVC LOTh ORINGIE, identifying the issuer as Duke of Lorraine, inscribed in Gothic majuscule Latin script running between the beaded circle and the outer flan edge. A trefoil of pellets appears at the top of the legend as a stop or decorative device. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Raoul of Lorraine ruled during a period of acute monetary instability in the region, with competing currencies from Metz, Bar, and the French royal mints all circulating simultaneously. The alerion — the heraldic eagle without beak or feet, drawn from the arms of Lorraine — gave this fractional issue its popular name, distinguishing it from the flood of anonymous small silver flooding the Moselle valley in the 1330s and 1340s.
Flon's corpus remains the definitive reference for medieval Lorraine coinage, and his attribution places this type firmly within Raoul's monetary reforms aimed at asserting ducal control over local exchange.
