| Obverse description | Crowned bust of Louis XII facing left, rendered in high relief in the Italian Renaissance style, with flowing hair beneath a fleur-de-lis-adorned crown. The effigy is armored at the shoulder, with fine detail visible in the chain mail and collar. The legend encircles the bust within a beaded inner border, reading LVDOVICVS D G FRANCOR REX, identifying the king by name and title as King of France by the grace of God. Dot stops separate the abbreviated words throughout the circumscription. |
