(Translation: Robert, duke of Burgundy.)
Reverse description Central field displays a stylized lion or heraldic animal passant within a plain inner circle, rendered in a schematic, low-relief Gothic style typical of Burgundian feudal coinage of the late 13th century. The surrounding peripheral legend reads ☩ DIVIONENSIS, denoting the Dijon mint. The flan is irregularly shaped with a slightly ragged edge, a common feature of hammered billon deniers of this period. The overall design is characteristic of the small feudal denier coinage struck under the Capetian Dukes of Burgundy.
