| Aversbeschreibung | Central field dominated by an elaborate floriated cross composed of interlacing foliage and fleurs-de-lis, with a prominent fleur-de-lis rising from the center of the cross. The four quadrants formed by the cross arms are filled with ornate Gothic foliate scrollwork. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, with the circumferential legend in Gothic uncial lettering running between the inner circle and the coin's edge. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Louis de Bourbon became Prince-Bishop of Liège in 1456 under heavy Burgundian pressure — his appointment was essentially forced through by Philip the Good, making him a largely unwilling instrument of ducal policy in a diocese that had violently resisted Burgundian encroachment for decades. The florin coinage he issued mimics the Rhenish florin tradition, part of a broader currency convention among the ecclesiastical princes of the region that allowed trade to flow across overlapping jurisdictions.
Louis was assassinated in 1482 by Guillaume de la Marck, whose men reportedly threw his body into the Meuse.
