| Obverse description | The field depicts in high relief the scene of Clovis being raised on a shield (pavois) by his Frankish warriors, a group of armed soldiers surrounding and lifting the young king aloft against a background of medieval architecture. The circumferential legend in raised letters reads around the upper portion of the medal, with the date 481 in the lower exergue, flanked by two rosette ornaments. |
