Reverse description Central field features a bold pattée cross occupying the majority of the design area, enclosed within an inner beaded or dotted circle. The four cantons formed by the cross arms are plain, giving a stark, austere appearance typical of feudal deniers of this period. A circumferential Latin legend surrounds the inner circle, reading ✠ COMES . RICHMUD, identifying John III as Count of Richmond. The overall style reflects standard hammer-struck Breton feudal coinage of the early fourteenth century, with the irregular flan and variable die alignment characteristic of the issue.
