Obverse description Central shield of Orleans bearing three fleurs-de-lis arranged two-and-one, surmounted by an ornate royal crown. The letter M appears to the left of the shield and the letter I to the right, serving as initials flanking the arms. The entire device is set within a circular Latin legend running along the coin's border.

Reverse description A bold cross with anchor-shaped or fleur-de-lis terminals occupies the central field, its four arms dividing the design into quadrants each containing a fleurs-de-lis. The date 1657 appears integrated within the surrounding Latin legend, which runs continuously around the coin's periphery. The overall composition is characteristic of French feudal silver coinage of the mid-seventeenth century.
