| Obverse description | Central field depicts a large crowned lion rampant of Flanders facing left, positioned before a crested great helm adorned with a second lion as crest, the ensemble flanked on each side by tall ornate sword-bearing standards or lances. The composition is set within a Gothic architectural framework. A horizontal bar at the base bears the legend FLANDRES in Gothic lettering, separating the central device from the outer marginal legend. The surrounding circular Latin legend, rendered in Gothic majuscules between two beaded borders, reads: DOVICVS DEI GRA COM Z DNS FLANDRIE, identifying Louis by the grace of God, Count and Lord of Flanders. |
