| Reverse description | The reverse bears a bold four-line Latin inscription filling the plain field, reading AD / USUM / BELGII / AUSTR·, with the date appearing on a fifth line below. Beneath the date, in the lower exergual area, the Brussels mint mark — an angel face — is struck. The deeply incised lettering is large and unadorned, occupying the central field without additional ornamental devices, the whole enclosed within a beaded border. This reverse type, with its straightforward declaration of purpose for use in the Austrian Netherlands, is characteristic of the Maria Theresa copper coinage struck at Brussels. |
