| Reverse description | A bold floriated cross pattée with fleurs-de-lis terminating each arm occupies the central field, contained within a beaded inner circle. The cross is rendered in high relief typical of hammered silver coinage of the late Valois period. The circular Latin legend is inscribed between the inner beaded circle and the outer beaded border, separated by small annulets acting as word stops. |
