| Reverse description | Central field bears a elaborate crowned shield displaying the quartered arms of France and Dauphiné, surmounted by a cross, all within a beaded inner border. The heraldic composition is rendered in a flat, stylized Gothic manner consistent with late-medieval hammered coinage. A circular Latin devotional legend surrounds the central device along the outer margin. The irregular flan exhibits characteristic weakness of strike in places, with the overall design legible despite evident die wear. |
