| Obverse lettering | FRANCISCVS DEI GRA FRANCOR REX (Translation: Francis I, by the grace of god, king of the Franks.) |
| Reverse description | Crowned royal arms of France and Brittany, quartered, flanked on either side by a crowned letter F and a crowned ermine spot, all set within an ornate polylobe frame. The shield is surmounted by a fleur-de-lis crown. The arrangement reflects the dynastic union of France and Brittany under Francis I. The circular Latin legend runs along the outer border, separated from the inner design by a beaded circle. |
