| Obverse description | Facing effigy of Count Louis I, depicted as a crowned bust rendered in a bold, schematic medieval style characteristic of late 13th-century feudal coinage. The crown is clearly articulated with prominent points, and the facial features, though stylised, convey a frontal portrait with flanking curled hair. The effigy is contained within an inner circle, surrounded by a circular Latin legend in uncial characters reading + LVDOVICVS COmES. |
