| Reversbeschreibung | A voided, floriated triple cross contained within a polylobe border and inner beaded circle occupies the reverse field. In each angle formed by the arms of the cross, a small eagle is positioned atop the respective letter of the legend, while a quadrilobe at the center of the cross contains the letter D. The refined Gothic execution of the crosswork and the repeated heraldic eagles reflect the ecclesiastical and dynastic symbolism characteristic of Flemish gold coinage under Louis II de Male. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Louis II de Male ruled Flanders through one of the most turbulent periods in its history, caught perpetually between French royal pressure and the economic interests of his own cloth-producing cities. The helm denomination itself was minted in fractional form specifically to meet demand for smaller gold transactions — the full helm was too valuable for routine exchange. Louis's long reign saw repeated urban revolts, culminating in the Battle of Beverhoutsveld in 1382, where Ghent defeated his forces before French intervention at Roosebeke reversed the outcome months later.
He died in January 1384 without ever fully subduing Ghent, leaving Flanders to his son-in-law Philip the Bold of Burgundy.
