| Obverse description | Central field displays a large uncial Gothic 'K' surmounted by a royal crown, flanked on either side by a fleur-de-lis. The design is contained within an inner circle, with the surrounding legend in uncial Gothic lettering reading KAROLVS FRAnCORVm REX (Charles, King of the Franks). The hammered flan displays the characteristic irregular outline typical of late 15th-century French billon coinage. |
