| Reverse description | A large cross pattée occupies the central field, its arms extending to a beaded inner circle, dividing the interior legend into four sections. The inner legend is separated from the outer legend by a beaded border, with a second outer beaded border delimiting the coin's edge. The cross pattée design follows the standard Low Countries groat tradition derived from French gros tournois prototypes. The lettering throughout is executed in the Gothic uncial hand characteristic of Holland mint production in the late 14th century. |
