Beschrijving keerzijde A long ornamental cross extending to the coin's periphery and superimposing a beaded inner circle, with a small Gelderland cross motif at its center. The four quarters formed by the cross arms are left plain. A Latin circular legend occupies the outer field between the beaded circle and the rim. The composition is typical of the small billon fractional coinage produced in the Duchy of Guelders during the early sixteenth century.

Aanvullende informatie

The "mutterken" — a diminutive of the Madonna figure that likely appeared on these fractional billon pieces — was among the smallest denomination struck in the Habsburg-era Low Countries, produced at Nijmegen when the duchy's mint was operating under increasingly pressured political circumstances. Guelders under Charles of Egmond was in near-constant conflict with the Habsburgs during this period, and local mint output reflected both the urgency of small-change demand and the chronic shortage of precious metal that plagued the region's monetary system.
