| Obverse description | A large fleur-de-lis occupies the central field, rendered in the typical Gothic style of 14th-century Savoyard coinage. The motif is boldly struck in high relief, with the three petals of the lily clearly articulated against the flat field. A circular Latin legend surrounds the central device, partially legible due to the irregular flan and characteristic wear of hammered medieval coinage. The overall design reflects the heraldic vocabulary associated with Count Aymon of Savoy. |

| Reverse description | A cross pattée with fleurs-de-lis at each terminal — a so-called lilied cross — is centrally placed, dividing the reverse field into four quadrants. The arms of the cross extend nearly to the inner border, forming a symmetrical and well-proportioned design characteristic of 14th-century Savoyard deniers. A Latin circular legend, largely illegible due to flan irregularity and surface wear, runs along the periphery. The design typology is consistent with issues struck under Count Aymon of Savoy at the Pont-d'Ain mint. |
