| Obverse description | Bare-headed bust of Henri III facing right, wearing a ruff collar, rendered in low relief in the hammered style characteristic of late 16th-century French coinage. The king's portrait is relatively crude, with visible facial features including a prominent nose and chin. The legend encircles the bust, reading in abbreviated Latin. A small mint mark or privy mark appears in the field near the base of the bust. |
