| Reverse description | A large pattee cross dominates the central field, its splayed arms nearly reaching the beaded inner circle. The surrounding Latin legend, IN x HOC x SIGNO x VINCES x 1517, translates as 'In this sign thou shalt conquer,' a motto of Constantinian origin widely employed on ecclesiastical coinage of the period. The date 1517 is incorporated into the legend, and the overall composition reflects the standard reverse type used for small hammered billon and copper denominations of the Prince-Bishopric of Liège. |
