| Beschrijving keerzijde | A long voided cross extends to the edge of the coin, dividing the reverse into four quarters, each containing a fleur-de-lis in the angle. The arms of the cross cut through the surrounding circular legend, a characteristic feature of this type. A beaded inner circle frames the central design. The Latin peripheral legend records the comital title of the joint rulers as count and countess of Provence. The execution is typical of mid-14th century hammered billon coinage, with some irregularity in flan shape and strike. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Joan I of Provence — simultaneously Queen of Naples, Countess of Provence, and one of the most embattled rulers of the fourteenth century — struck these deniers jointly with her second husband Louis of Taranto following a period of extraordinary dynastic chaos. She had been implicated, though never conclusively convicted, in the 1345 murder of her first husband Andrew of Hungary, a scandal that drew Angevin and Hungarian factions into open conflict and briefly cost her control of Naples. The Provençal coinage continued through this turmoil largely undisturbed, which is itself a telling detail about the administrative durability of the county.
