| Beschrijving keerzijde | A large quadrilobe cross, ornately foliated and fleury, set within a four-lobed quatrefoil frame. Four fleurs-de-lis crowns are positioned in the angles between the lobes of the cross, filling the field symmetrically. The entire design is executed in the decorative Gothic idiom typical of Capetian-Valois gold coinage. The Christogram legend, invoking Christ's sovereignty, encircles the composition as an outer legend. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Philippe VI, the first Valois king, introduced the royal d'or in 1328 as part of a broader assertion of dynastic legitimacy following his contested succession over Edward III of England — a dispute that would, within a decade, ignite the Hundred Years' War. The coin's name derived directly from the royal imagery it carried, a deliberate break from the florin-influenced vocabulary of his Capetian predecessors.
Duplessy royal 247 is the anchor reference for this type. Pure gold coinage of this fineness was already becoming economically unsustainable by mid-reign; Philippe debased repeatedly from the 1330s onward, making the pristine early issues increasingly short-lived in circulation.
