| Reverse description | A plain cross pattée occupies the central field, with the date distributed in the four quadrants around the cross — numerals 1 and 6 appearing in the upper quadrants and 4 and 1 in the lower quadrants, forming the date 1641. The cross is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, with the partial circular legend running along the outer border. The strike is typical of hammered coinage, showing some weakness at the periphery. |
