Beschrijving keerzijde Central motif is a prominent cross pattée with slightly flared arms, occupying the full field within a beaded inner circle. The arms of the cross extend nearly to the inner circle, dividing the field into four quarters. The surrounding legend reads BRITONV DVX, identifying the issuer as Duke of the Britons, preceded by a cross pattée. The style follows the standard tournois denier reverse type widespread in feudal French coinage of the period. The hammered fabric results in a slightly irregular flan with some weakness at the edges.

Aanvullende informatie

John IV spent much of his reign navigating between English alliance and French suzerainty — he had been restored to the duchy in 1379 with English military backing after years of exile, and the political tension never fully resolved. His billon coinage of this period was struck against that background of fragile independence, with Brittany maintaining its own monetary system as one of the few French fiefs to do so with any consistency through the late fourteenth century.
