| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central design features the crowned arms of the de la Marck family flanked by four fleurs-de-lis arranged in the quarters of the field, superimposed over a Burgundian (Saint Andrew's) cross that divides the date when present. The heraldic shield is surmounted by a coronet, and the entire composition is enclosed within a circular Latin legend invoking a religious benediction. The Burgundian cross motif reflects the political heritage of the Spanish Netherlands, while the fleurs-de-lis emphasize the noble lineage of the ruling abbess. The design is characteristic of the ecclesiastical coinage struck under the authority of the Imperial Abbey of Thorn during the early seventeenth century. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Abbey of Thorn was one of the few religious institutions in the Low Countries with full imperial immediacy — answering directly to the Holy Roman Emperor rather than any secular lord — and that status carried the right to strike coin. Abbess Anne van de Marck held that authority during a period when the Southern Netherlands were grinding through the Eighty Years' War, and small copper issues like this liard filled the vacuum left by hoarded silver.
Thorn's coinage rights were perennially contested by neighboring Gelderland and Liège, making any dated emission from the abbey's mint politically as much as economically motivated.
