Reverse description A pointed heraldic shield bearing the arms of the House of Valois-Alençon occupies the central field, displaying three fleurs-de-lis arranged in the French royal manner, enclosed within a decorative border of small roundels or bezants on the shield's rim. The shield is rendered in a bold Gothic style consistent with late 14th-century Italian die-engraving practice. A beaded border surrounds the design, separating the central device from the outer circular legend. The composition identifies the issuing authority as Cardinal Philip of Alençon, a member of the French royal house, who held the Patriarchate of Aquileia during this period.
