| Reverse description | A long cross pattee extends to the coin's edge, dividing the reverse into four quadrants, each containing a small shield bearing the quartered arms of Bavaria-Holland. The cross intersects the surrounding beaded legend, a characteristic feature of Flemish and Burgundian quarter-groat coinage of this period. The legend, rendered in uncial Latin characters, identifies Jacqueline as Duchess of Bavaria and Countess of Holland. The overall design is executed in the hammered Gothic style, with the shields rendered in low relief within their respective quarters. |
