| Beschrijving voorzijde | Stylized facade of a church depicted in the central field, featuring a gabled roof surmounted by a cross, with three bells visible — one in each lateral bay and one in the lower central portal. The building is rendered in a schematic Romanesque manner typical of Capetian feudal coinage. The design is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, surrounded by the royal legend in Latin characters. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Louis VI, known as "le Gros," issued coinage from Dreux under his royal authority — a significant assertion, given that Dreux was a comital town where controlling the mint was itself a political act. His reign saw persistent conflict with the Capetian lords and the English crown, and the money of Dreux circulated in a region where currency overlap with Norman and Champenois issues was constant.
The distinction between the first and second type rests on subtle die differences catalogued by Duplessy; collectors frequently misattribute the two without direct comparison to reference plates.
