| Obverse description | Philip the Good, Duke of Burgundy, enthroned within a Gothic stall (throne), depicted in full frontal view. The duke holds an upraised sword in his right hand as a symbol of sovereign authority, while his left hand rests upon a Burgundian shield bearing the arms of Burgundy. The entire composition is enclosed within a polylobe border, a characteristic Gothic framing device. The field surrounding the enthroned figure is plain, with the ornate Gothic architectural setting rendered in fine hammered relief. The encircling legend appears between the polylobe and the outer rim. |
