FRANÇOIS Ier (1515-1547).
Gold shield with sun.
Emblematic coin of the reign of François I, symbolizing the French Renaissance and the strengthening of royal authority. Struck in gold, it weighs 3.31 grams and has a diameter of 2.5 cm.
Some wear is visible, notably on the reliefs and legends, but the whole remains legible and representative of the type.
The gold shield with sun illustrates the artistic and monetary refinement of the early 16th century.
