| Reverse description | Central design displays a floriated cross pattée within a beaded inner circle, with the arms of the cross extending nearly to the circle's edge and a small pellet or fleur ornament at each terminal. A small letter S appears in the lower field below the cross, serving as the mint mark for the Chambéry mint. The surrounding Latin legend reads SIT. NOM. D. BENEDICT followed by the date 1601, invoking a blessing upon the name of the Lord. The execution is typical of hammered French billon issues of the period. |
