Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse displays a bold long cross extending to the coin's periphery, dividing the field into four quadrants each containing pellets or small decorative devices, a common motif on contemporary Scandinavian bracteate-influenced coinage. The peripheral legend in uncial Latin characters reads MONETA ASLOIE (Money of Oslo), identifying the Oslo mint as the place of issue. The cross design served both as a religious symbol and as a practical cutting guide for halving or quartering the coin. The flan edges are ragged and uneven, consistent with hand-hammered production on a roughly prepared silver blank. The overall style aligns closely with other Norwegian penning fractions catalogued by Skaare for this period.

Aanvullende informatie

Håkon Magnusson was Duke of Norway during this period, not yet king — he wouldn't take the throne until 1299. These fractional pennings were struck as Norway's monetary system pushed into increasingly small denominations to meet the demands of petty commerce, a policy that produced coins so light and thin that die-to-flan contact was inherently inconsistent. Skaare 242 is among the more elusive of the ducal fractions.
