Reverse description A bold cross with concave or scalloped arms fills the reverse field, dividing it into four quarters; the cantons at positions one and four bear a royal crown, while those at positions two and three bear a fleur-de-lys. A circular Latin legend reading SIT NOMEN DOMINI BENEDICTUM runs along the outer border within a beaded circle, punctuated by a rose stop. The overall design is characteristic of the French Renaissance billon coinage of the Valois monarchy.
