| Obverse description | A short voided cross divides the field into four quadrants, each bearing alternating charges consisting of the arms of Dokkum, a sun, and waxing crescent moons. The design is rendered in the crude, hand-struck style typical of mid-fifteenth-century Frisian municipal coinage. The peripheral legend reads MONETA NOVA DOCKVM in Latin characters, encircling the central cross motif. The overall strike is irregular, consistent with hammered technique on a hand-cut flan. |
