| Reverse description | A short Greek cross with forked or bifurcated tips occupies the central field, set within a plain inner circle. The arms of the cross divide the field into four quarters, each left plain. A two-line circular legend in Gothic uncial lettering fills the outer border, comprising a devotional inscription followed by the date of issue expressed in Roman numerals. The overall design is simple and devotional in character, consistent with fifteenth-century Low Countries municipal silver coinage. |
