Reverse description The reverse presents a floriated or ornamental cross occupying the central field, with decorative elements including a small rosette or star at the centre of the cross. The arms of the cross terminate in stylized foliate or angular motifs, dividing the field into quadrants. Partial letters and abbreviations from the Latin legend H S V N BEA GNS CV D SPS E are distributed around the cross, referencing the half stuiver denomination and the pious motto identifying the Lord as the hope of the people of Nijmegen. The overall execution is characteristic of hastily produced hammered billon municipal coinage of the Dutch Revolt period, with uneven strike and a rough flan.
