| Beschrijving keerzijde | A plain cross pattée occupies the central field, dividing the reverse into four quadrants; three pellets appear in the lower-left quadrant, and a small eagle or heraldic device is visible in the upper-right quadrant. The surrounding legend, separated from the central design by a beaded inner circle, reads the mint city inscription. The overall style is characteristic of late medieval German municipal hammered silver coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Aachen's mint operated under a series of agreements with the city council that frequently broke down — the early fifteenth century saw repeated disputes over seigniorage rights and the quality of silver being delivered to the dies. This piece falls within the period when Aachen was aggressively asserting its minting privileges against encroachment from neighboring ecclesiastical lords. The city held imperial mint rights traceable to Carolingian precedent, a claim it defended with genuine legal ferocity.
Menadier 103a is among the more precisely attributed varieties in this series, distinguished by die characteristics documented in his 1891 Berlin study of Rhenish municipal coinage.
