| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents an elaborate floriated cross pattee at centre, its arms terminating in fleurs-de-lis and decorated with small quatrefoils at the intersections, all contained within a cusped inner circle. Four lis or trefoil ornaments fill the quadrants between the cross arms. A crowned fleur-de-lis appears at the top of the cross. The surrounding circular legend in uncial Gothic script bears the Christus Vincit formula, punctuated by six-pointed stars, and is bounded by an outer toothed or beaded border consistent with the hammered technique of the period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
John IV inherited Brabant in 1415 at age fourteen, with real power initially exercised by regents while the duchy navigated the turbulent aftermath of Agincourt and shifting Burgundian pressure. The petit mouton d'or series draws directly from French royal agnels — the Valois prototype had circulated so widely across the Low Countries that local dukes adopted the type wholesale to satisfy commercial demand for recognizable gold currency in cross-border trade.
Delmonte G#54 is among the scarcer Brabantine gold issues of the period, reflecting John IV's relatively unstable finances and his eventual forced cession of considerable ducal authority to the Estates in 1422.
