| Obverse description | Central field displays the abbreviated royal name and title IOHANNES REX FRANCORV in two lines beneath a prominent fleur-de-lis, rendered in Gothic uncial lettering. The fleur-de-lis, emblem of the French royal house, is positioned above the two-line inscription, dominating the upper portion of the flan. The legend encircles the design, partially visible along the irregular periphery of this hammered billon piece. The overall composition is characteristic of mid-14th-century French royal coinage issued under Jean II le Bon. |
