Reverse description A long cross extending to the beaded outer border divides the reverse field into four quadrants, each containing a group of pellets arranged symmetrically — a design closely derived from the English Long Cross penny type. A beaded inner circle surrounds the central cross junction. The moneyer's legend reads ✠ FÆMEN NMΘ ÐYHI, identifying the moneyer Faeremin operating at the Dublin mint, rendered in the Hiberno-Norse tradition with characteristically idiosyncratic lettering. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded outer border.
