Aversbeschreibung A large, centrally placed fleur-de-lis occupies the entire field, rendered in the elaborate Gothic style typical of 14th-century Navarrese florins and closely modeled on the Florentine florin type. The petals and lateral volutes of the fleur-de-lis are finely detailed, with stippled or crosshatched infill on the lateral lobes, rising to a trefoil crown at the apex. A circular Latin legend surrounds the motif along the coin's periphery, separated from the central device by a beaded inner border.

Reversbeschreibung A full-length, front-facing figure of Saint John the Baptist stands in a formal, hieratic posture upon a plain ground line, depicted in flowing robes characteristic of Gothic ecclesiastical imagery. The saint raises his right hand in a gesture of benediction, while his left hand holds a long cross-staff. The figure is rendered in high relief with fine drapery detail, occupying the full height of the inner field. A circular Latin legend naming the saint runs around the periphery, enclosed within a beaded border consistent with the obverse treatment.

Zusätzliche Informationen

Charles II of Navarre — "Charles the Bad" — was one of the most destabilizing figures in fourteenth-century French politics, playing the English and Valois crowns against each other with calculated ruthlessness throughout the Hundred Years' War. His County of Evreux gave him a foothold in Normandy that made him indispensable, and dangerous, to both sides. The right to strike gold coinage was itself a political instrument, asserting comital independence at precisely the moment French royal authority was most fractured.

Fr#37a is among the scarcer Evreux gold attributions; Charles's Navarrese and Norman issues are frequently conflated in older references.
