| Reverse description | An ornate fleurs-de-lis cross with lily-head terminals occupies the central field, centred on a quatrefoil rosette. The four arms of the cross end in stylised fleur-de-lis blooms, creating a decorative cruciform design characteristic of late Valois and early Bourbon hammered silver coinage. The surrounding legend reads SIT NOMEN DOMINI BENEDICTVM followed by the date, invoking the blessing of the Lord's name. The mint mark Z for Grenoble appears in the lower field between the cross arms. |
