Obverse lettering ☩ IOHANNES DOM
(Translation: Lord John)
Reverse description A voided short cross potent occupying the full field, dividing the design into four quarters, each containing a prominent annulet. The cross limbs terminate in potent (crutch-shaped) ends and are boldly struck, creating a strong geometric composition typical of the Angevin cross-and-pellet reverse type. The surrounding legend, reading clockwise, identifies the moneyer and mint. The flan is irregularly shaped and slightly ragged at the edges, consistent with hand-cut hammered coinage of the period.
