| Beschrijving keerzijde | Saint John the Baptist is depicted standing facing, nimbed and shown full-length in long robes with vertical folds rendered in the Gothic manner. He holds the Agnus Dei (Lamb of God) in his left arm, consistent with standard florin-type iconography, while his right hand is raised in a gesture of blessing. A halo surrounds his head, and the figure stands on a small platform or ground line. A Latin legend encircles the design, identifying the saint patron of the Florentine florin series. |

Peter IV of Cambrai — Pierre de André — held the see from 1349 to 1368, and his gold florins were struck in direct imitation of the Florentine florin, whose design had become the dominant trade coin template across northern Europe and the Low Countries by mid-century. Cambrai occupied an awkward political position: nominally within the Holy Roman Empire as part of the County of Hainaut's orbit, yet ecclesiastically and commercially pulled toward France. The bishop's right to strike gold was a jealously defended prerogative.
Fröschen 105a distinguishes this variety from the broader Peter IV series by specific die characteristics.
