| Reverse description | Enthroned crowned figure, likely a local or imperial saint, seated facing with arms outstretched, rendered in high relief on the irregular hammered gold flan. The figure is enclosed within a beaded circle, with the full mint legend MONETA NOVA BATENBVRGENSIS surrounding the design in the outer field, identifying this as a new coinage of the Barony of Batenburg. The style is consistent with Rhenish ducat coinage of the late 16th century, with bold but somewhat crude engraving characteristic of a minor lordship's mint production. |
