| Obverse description | Facing crowned royal bust rendered in the flat, stylised manner characteristic of Angevin hammered coinage, set within a beaded inner circle. The effigy displays a wide, frontal face with prominent eyes, a broad nose, and a short beard, surmounted by a crown with pellet-tipped projections. The king holds a sceptre to the right of the bust. A circular Latin legend surrounds the inner circle within the field. |
