| Obverse description | Central field bears the inscription BRE / ITO arranged on two lines, serving as an abbreviated reference to Brittany. The surrounding peripheral legend reads ✠ IOHANNES DVX N, identifying John as Duke of Brittany. The lettering is in Gothic characters typical of mid-14th-century Breton hammered coinage, struck on an irregular flan with characteristic uneven edges. The field is plain with no additional decorative devices, aside from a point in the field on certain die variants. |
