One side of a gold coin features an inscription circling an image (see 'Inscriptions' field). In the center, "C" and "R" flank a crowned coat of arms divided into four sections. The first and fourth sections feature stylized fleur-de-lis lilies and lions, the second a lion rampant, and the third a harp. A large, jeweled crown rests atop the shield. The entire design is enclosed by a fine beaded border.
