| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field displays a sickle and a mussel (or bivalve shell) as the primary heraldic charges, rendered in a crude, flat relief typical of early 13th-century feudal billon coinage. The devices are enclosed within a plain inner circle. The surrounding legend reads LODVICVS REX, beginning with a cross pattée, identifying the issuer as King Louis, and is executed in a somewhat irregular Gothic majuscule script characteristic of provincial hammered coinage of the period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The early Bourbon obols are among the thinnest and most fragile survivors of medieval French feudal coinage — at under half a gram in billon, attrition rates were brutal, and most circulated to illegibility. The Lordship of Bourbon at this date was still a minor vassal entity, not yet elevated to the county it would become in 1327, and its monetary output was correspondingly modest in volume and ambition.
