Reverse description Central field depicting a mounted knight in full armour advancing to the left, seated on a caparisoned horse shown in profile. The rider is rendered in a bold, somewhat schematic style typical of 13th-century regional coinage, with a lance or sword held upright. Surrounding the equestrian figure are several small heraldic and celestial devices, including a crescent moon and star-like ornaments distributed across the field. The whole composition is contained within a raised circular border, with no discernible legend. The flan is irregular and the relief is uneven, consistent with hammered medieval production.
