Obverse description Two flanking towers, each surmounted by a cross, frame the central design in a Gothic architectural arrangement. Beneath the towers, a heraldic shield displays a single-headed eagle displayed, serving as the arms of the lord of Anholt. The overall composition is rendered in the crude relief typical of low-denomination hammered billon coinage of the early fifteenth-century Low Countries. The devices occupy the central field within a beaded inner circle, with the outer legend zone separated by a plain linear border.
