| Beschrijving voorzijde | Vertically divided shield bearing the two-fold arms of Cleves, with the escutcheon occupying the central field. The heraldic device is rendered in a Gothic style typical of late medieval German coinage. A beaded inner circle borders the shield, with the circumferential legend running between the inner and outer borders. The legend reads +IOhS DVX CLIV Z CO MAR, identifying the issuer as Johann (John II), Duke of Cleves and Count of Mark. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
John II of Cleves ruled a strategically vital Rhine territory during a period of intense pressure from both Burgundian and Habsburgian interests. The muter — a low-denomination struck silver piece common to the Lower Rhine region in this period — circulated alongside a chaotic mix of local and foreign coinage, much of it debased. John II was known for attempting to regulate currency within his domains, making small silver issues like this one part of a deliberate, if modest, monetary policy rather than mere convention.
