| Beschrijving keerzijde | A plain Latin cross dominates the central field, dividing the reverse into four quarters. A small crown mark is placed in the upper-left quarter, serving as a mint or privy mark identifying the Avignon mint and referencing the comital authority of Robert I. Segmented legend in uncial Latin lettering appears in the remaining quarters and along the circumference, proclaiming the issuer's title as Count of Provence. The flan exhibits the characteristic irregular shape and variable relief of hammered medieval coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Robert I of Anjou, Count of Provence and King of Naples, died in 1343 — meaning this obol was struck within the last four years of a reign that had lasted since 1309. His county minted prolifically throughout his rule, but the smaller billon denominations of his final decade are considerably scarcer than the larger silver issues, likely because their low intrinsic value made them candidates for rapid loss or melting rather than hoarding.
