Obverse lettering ALYNORA DVCISSA GHE:
(Translation: Eleonora Duchess Guelders)
Reverse description Central design features a bold long cross extending to the inner beaded circle, dividing the field into four quadrants, each containing a small decorative motif. The cross is a common reverse type on Low Countries groschen fractions of the period, providing a stable compositional anchor for the thin hammered flan. The circumferential Latin legend naming the mint of Harderwijk runs between the inner beaded circle and the outer rim. The flan shows characteristic irregular clipping and surface granularity consistent with hammered medieval silver.
