| Beschrijving voorzijde | Right-facing armored bust of François I, wearing a closed crown with fleurs-de-lis and displaying shoulder-length hair beneath. The king is depicted in cuirass with draped pauldrons visible at the shoulder. The effigy is rendered in the Renaissance portrait style typical of early sixteenth-century French royal coinage. The legend encircles the bust within a beaded border, with the mintmark visible in the lower field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Dauphiné teston was struck under François I as part of his broader effort to unify French coinage after decades of regional monetary fragmentation — the Dauphiné mint had long operated under semi-autonomous arrangements inherited from the annexation of 1457. This piece is a contemporary forgery, struck in silver but outside royal authority, likely produced to exploit the teston's wide acceptance in regional trade along the Rhône corridor. The Ciani gap is telling: forgers of this type were known enough to cataloguers that attribution remains contested.
