The king wears a laurel wreath and a lace jabot visible at the truncation of the neck. The peripheral legend reads CAROLUS • IIII • DEI • GRATIA •, interrupted at the base by the mint date. The field is smooth and unadorned, with the portrait dominating the coin face. The obverse is framed by a milled border of fine denticles. |
