| Obverse description | Three fleurs-de-lis arranged in a triangular formation occupy the central field, each rendered in the Gothic style characteristic of late medieval French coinage. The fleurs-de-lis are enclosed within a double inner circle, with the surrounding legend running along the coin's periphery between two beaded borders. The design is boldly struck in the hammered tradition, resulting in slight irregularity of the flan. The overall composition reflects the royal heraldic arms of France, conveying dynastic authority under Louis XI. |
