| Obverse description | Equestrian figure of Duke Francis I, armored and depicted in right profile, brandishing a raised sword in his right hand while bearing a shield charged with three ermine spots on his left arm. The horse is caparisoned with the ducal coat of arms. The mounted figure occupies the full field of the coin in the tradition of the chivalric ecu au chevalier type. The surrounding legend is rendered in Gothic lettering within a beaded inner circle. |
