Obverse description Draped bust of Francis of Bourbon facing right, depicted with a ruffled collar in early 17th-century courtly style, set within a beaded inner circle. The portrait is rendered in relatively high relief with bold, somewhat naive execution characteristic of small princely mint production. The surrounding legend in Latin reads • F • DE • BOVRB • LVD • MARGAR • A LOT, identifying Francis of Bourbon and Louise Marguerite of Lorraine. The legend is separated from the toothed outer border by the beaded circle.
