Obverse description A fleur-de-lis occupies the central field, surmounted by a royal crown rendered in relief. The crown features a row of arched elements and sits directly atop the lis, symbolizing French royal authority. The flan is irregular, as characteristic of hammered coinage of the period, with a granulated border visible around the periphery.
