| Obverse description | Laureate and draped bust of Louis XIII facing right, rendered in low relief in the characteristic style of the later Double Tournois series. The king is depicted with curled hair beneath a laurel wreath, wearing a lightly draped mantle at the truncation. The mint mark E (for Tours) appears below the bust in the field. The peripheral legend reads LOYS XIII R D FRAN E NAV, identifying the king as ruler of France and Navarre. |
