| Obverse description | Central field bears a rampant lion passant sinister within a beaded inner circle. Surrounding this is a decorative border composed of eleven stylized leaves and one lion, each element enclosed within an individual arc, forming a characteristic Gothic architectural frame. The outer legend, rendered in uncial Gothic characters, runs along the periphery between the arc border and the coin's irregular edge. The overall style is consistent with Low Countries feudal coinage of the mid-fourteenth century, with bold, deeply struck relief typical of hammered silver groats of the period. |
