| Beschrijving voorzijde | Quartered shield within a beaded inner circle, displaying the royal arms of France (three fleurs-de-lis) in the first and fourth quarters, and the arms of Dauphine (a crowned dolphin) in the second and third quarters. The shield is framed by a plain border and surrounded by a circular outer legend. The design is characteristic of the first type ecu au soleil of Francis I, executed in the hammered technique with bold, deeply struck relief. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The écu au soleil was first introduced under Louis XI in 1475 and remained France's dominant gold denomination through the early sixteenth century, but the Dauphiné issues occupy a specific administrative niche — struck at Crémieu or Romans under the authority of the heir apparent's appanage, not the royal mints proper. Francis held the Dauphiné from birth until his accession in 1515, and production at these regional mint points continued into the early years of his reign under transitional authority arrangements that complicate precise attribution to this day.
The "var." designation against Dy#782 matters here — Duplessy himself acknowledged die variations in this emission that remain incompletely catalogued.
