Obverse description Central field features a coat of arms consisting of a diagonal bend overlaid on a ground of fleurs-de-lis arranged in three rows, all contained within a beaded inner circle. The arms are rendered in the Gothic hammered style typical of late 15th-century feudal French coinage. A circular Latin legend surrounds the inner beaded border, reading the ruler's title and name. The overall design reflects the heraldic conventions of the Bourbon dynasty, with the fleurs-de-lis emblematic of the French royal connection.
