| Reverse description | A short, floriated cross with equal arms occupies the center of the die, bearing the letter D at its intersection within a polylobe or multi-cusped inner border. The letters F, L, A, and N are disposed in the four angles formed by the arms of the cross. The surrounding legend, punctuated by double saltires, carries the well-known Benedictus devotional inscription, a common feature on Flemish gold coinage of the period. |
