| Reverse description | Central design featuring a tall cross surmounted by a small cross or crosslet at its head, flanked on either side by Gothic architectural or heraldic motifs — likely stylised fleurs-de-lis or foliate ornaments — all contained within a beaded inner circle. The composition is characteristic of the spadin type, derived from the broader groschen tradition adapted to smaller fractional denominations. The field is flat and irregular, consistent with hammered production on an uneven flan. The peripheral legend in Latin Gothic lettering encircles the entire design, separated from the inner circle by a narrow flat border. The execution is relatively crude but legible, reflecting the modest resources of a minor feudal mint. |
