| Obverse description | Half-length frontal effigy of Charles, Duke of Aquitaine, depicted wearing a fillet, his right hand raised in a gesture of benediction and his left hand grasping an upright sword. The figure is rendered in the Gothic hammered style characteristic of late medieval French feudal coinage. The ducal title legend surrounds the effigy within the coin's field. |
