| Beschrijving voorzijde | Pope Martin V enthroned facing, depicted in full pontifical vestments upon a leonine throne, his right hand raised in the gesture of benediction and his left hand clasping a cruciform pastoral staff. The figure is rendered in the flat, schematic style characteristic of early fifteenth-century hammered coinage. The papal legend encircles the central device within a beaded inner border. The composition reflects the hieratic iconographic tradition common to pontifical issues of the Avignon and post-Avignon periods. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Martin V's election at the Council of Constance in 1417 ended nearly forty years of schism during which rival claimants had fragmented papal finances and administration. The Comtat Venaissin — the papal enclave in Provence, distinct from Avignon itself — resumed stable coinage under his authority almost immediately, this groschen belonging to the earliest phase of that reconsolidation. Billon issues from the Comtat are routinely underrepresented in major collections; the territory's mint output was modest and regionally absorbed, leaving few pieces in the broader numismatic record.
