| Obverse description | Laureate and draped bust of Louis XIV facing right, the hair arranged in a long periwig with flowing curls. The effigy is rendered in high relief in the style of Joseph Roëttiers, with the king's profile displaying regal composure. The circular Latin legend begins at approximately the seven o'clock position and runs clockwise around the bust. A toothed or beaded border frames the entire obverse field. |
