The shield displays the complex dynastic arms of Charles III, incorporating the arms of Hungary (barry), Anjou (fleurs-de-lis), Guelders (lion), Lorraine (bend), and Jerusalem (cross potent), among other quarterings, rendered with fine engraving typical of the period. The crowned escutcheon fills the central field, with the circular Latin mint legend surrounding the composition along the outer border. |
