| Beschrijving keerzijde | A floriated cross with elaborately trefoiled and leafy terminals is set at the centre of a large quatrefoil frame, the lobes of which are filled with floral and foliate ornament in the Gothic manner. The overall composition is symmetrical and richly decorative, reflecting the artistic conventions of Capetian-influenced Burgundian coinage of the first half of the 14th century. The surrounding legend in uncial characters reads XPC VINCIT XPC REGNAT XPC IMPERAT, the traditional Christological acclamation. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Odo IV held Burgundy as a French royal appanage and spent much of his reign navigating the dynastic chaos following the extinction of the direct Capetian line in 1328. His gold écus were struck at a moment when French royal coinage was being aggressively debased, making ducal issues from semi-independent lords like Odo politically charged objects — assertions of minting rights that Paris periodically attempted to curtail. The Burgundian mint at this period operated under recurrent royal pressure to conform to royal weight standards, a tension that produced measurable inconsistencies across surviving specimens.
