| Reverse description | A short cross pattée extending to the inner beaded circle, dividing the field into four quarters, each containing a pellet or decorative element in the typical style of 12th-century Scottish pennies. The moneyer's legend, reading FOLPALT ON RO (identifying the moneyer Folpalt and the mint, likely Roxburgh), is distributed around the outer field within the beaded border. The cross design follows the standard type employed across Anglo-Norman influenced coinages of the period, with bold arms and clearly defined cantons. The hammered fabric results in a slightly uneven strike, as is characteristic of medieval Scottish pennies of this era. |
