| Obverse lettering | ✠ RODVLFVS (Translation: Rudolph.) |
| Reverse description | A stylized church or temple facade depicted in schematic architectural form, showing a triangular pediment above a nave with two flanking columns or pilasters, evoking the ecclesiastical character of the Lyon mint. Small ornamental wedge or lozenge devices appear in the angles around the central building. The circular legend ✠ LVCVDNVS runs around the periphery within a beaded border, identifying the mint city of Lyon. The overall style is archaic and abstract, consistent with Carolingian-tradition feudal coinage of the late Capetian-Burgundian period. |
