| Reverse description | Central device consisting of three fleurs-de-lis arranged in a triangular formation within a beaded inner circle, referencing the heraldic tradition of the House of Lorraine and French feudal coinage conventions. The date 1634 appears in the upper portion of the field alongside the circular legend. The inscription, reading DOVBLE.TOVRNOIS, identifies the denomination and is distributed around the beaded circle, with pellet stops separating the words. The overall design closely follows the standard Double Tournois type issued by minor French principalities of the period. |
