| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field occupied by a large quartered heraldic shield, displaying in the first and fourth quarters the fleurs-de-lis of France and in the second and third quarters the diagonal bendlets of Burgundy, surmounted by a small decorative finial at the chief. The shield is set within a double inner circle of raised beading, flanked by decorative foliage or trefoil motifs at the sides and base. The surrounding peripheral legend in Gothic lettering reads +PhS:DVX:ET:COMES:BVRGONDIE, identifying Philip as Duke and Count of Burgundy. The overall style is characteristic of late medieval Burgundian hammered billon coinage, with irregular flan shaping and surfaces showing typical billon oxidation patina. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Philip III — "Philip the Good" — ruled Burgundy during the period when the duchy functioned less as a French vassal and more as an independent northern European power, controlling the wealthy Low Countries and maintaining its own diplomatic corps. The blanc issues of his reign circulated across an unusually wide geographic zone as a result, turning up in hoards from Flanders to the Rhône valley.
His reign ended with his death in 1467, the same year his son Charles the Bold immediately pushed the duchy toward open confrontation with Louis XI — a conflict that would destroy Burgundian independence within a decade.
