| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field bears the crowned royal arms of France — a pointed shield semé of fleurs-de-lis — enclosed within a raised inner circle. The crown surmounting the shield is rendered in relief above the escutcheon. The surrounding legend, struck in uncial Latin characters, reads FRANCISCVS FRANCORV REX, attributing the coin to Francis I, King of the Franks. The die is characteristic of the hammered billon coinage of the early sixteenth-century French royal workshop, with the legend interrupted by pellet stops. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field displays a long cross pattée dividing the inner circle into four quarters, each containing a fleur-de-lis in alternating cantons, a device characteristic of the petit blanc coinage of the Valois kings. A small crowned letter B, the mint mark for Bourges, appears at the top of the inner circle at the juncture with the cross. The surrounding legend in uncial Latin reads SIT NOMEN DNI BENEDI, an abbreviated form of the devotional phrase 'Sit nomen Domini benedictum' (Blessed be the name of the Lord), separated by pellet stops. The overall style and workmanship are consistent with provincial hammered production of the reign of Francis I. |
