| Beschrijving voorzijde | The field is filled with the quartered arms of Burgundy, displaying the heraldic devices of the duchy within a beaded inner circle. The shield arrangement occupies the central field in a bold, flat-relief style characteristic of Flemish hammered billon coinage of the mid-fifteenth century. The surrounding peripheral legend runs clockwise within the outer border. The overall design is compact and slightly irregular in shape due to the hand-struck flan. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Philip the Good's mite issues were struck across multiple mints operating under his Burgundian administration — Ghent, Bruges, and others — with dies that varied considerably between workshops. The billon content in these small-denomination pieces declined noticeably over the course of his reign as Philip's wars and territorial ambitions strained Burgundian finances, making earlier strikes compositionally distinct from later ones.
GH#15-2 cross-references a die family documented by Ghyssens, whose systematic work on Flemish billon remains the field standard for attributing these otherwise difficult pieces.
