| Obverse description | Within a beaded inner circle, three fleurs-de-lis arranged two above one occupy the central field, surmounted by an open royal crown rendered in high relief. The composition is enclosed within a plain inner ring, with the Latin legend running between the inner and outer beaded borders. The design is characteristic of the late Valois heraldic style, struck by hand with typical hammered irregularity. |

| Reverse description | A large fleurdelisée cross with fleurs-de-lis at each arm terminus occupies the central field, with each angle of the cross adorned by a crown motif — crowns appearing in the second and third quarters. The cross divides the inner circle into four equal quarters and is rendered in bold relief typical of hammered medieval coinage. The Latin devotional legend is inscribed between the inner beaded circle and the outer border, consistent with the Gros Florette type of Charles VI. |
