| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central device featuring the Limburg helmet crest surmounting the quartered shield of Limburg, the arms depicted at an angle in the Gothic heraldic style. The helmet with its characteristic crest rises prominently from the shield in the field. The composition is rendered in the bold, somewhat crude style typical of late medieval hammered coinage. A partial Latin legend surrounds the central heraldic device within a beaded or rope border. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A large Tudor-style rose rendered in bold relief occupies the central field, enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The rose, with multiple concentric rows of petals radiating from a central boss, is a characteristic type of the County of Limburg coinage. A Latin legend in Gothic lettering surrounds the inner circle, referencing the mint at Relinghausen (Relinchusen). The overall style is consistent with early fifteenth-century Rhenish hammered pfennig coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Theodoric V ruled Limburg an der Lahn during a period of persistent friction between the county and the Archbishopric of Trier, whose monetary ordinances repeatedly attempted to regulate — and undercut — the coinage rights of smaller Rhenish lordships. Small silver pfennigs of this type circulated in a region glutted with competing local issues, many of debased alloy, which made the relative silver content of Limburg's output a minor but real commercial consideration for local traders.
