| Beschrijving voorzijde | Facing enthroned figure of Count William, crowned and robed, holding a lily scepter in the right hand and an imperial orb in the left. The effigy is rendered in a flat, archaic style characteristic of late medieval German bracteate-influenced coinage. Small circular pellets flank the figure in the field. The design is contained within the irregular flan with no visible legend. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The heraldic arms of Ravensberg — a checkered chevron shield — displayed within a quatrefoil frame. Small cross pattee ornaments appear at the top and lateral cusps of the quatrefoil, serving as decorative separators. The design is boldly struck in high relief relative to the thin flan, with the gothic architectural framing typical of late 14th-century Westphalian coinage. No legend is present. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Ravensberg's pfennig coinage of this period reflects the county's precarious position — squeezed between the ambitions of the Prince-Bishops of Osnabrück and the expanding territorial power of the Duchy of Jülich-Berg. William II of Ravensberg, who held the county through much of this window, died in 1377 without male heirs, triggering the absorption of Ravensberg into the County of Berg. These bracteate-influenced thin silver pfennigs were among the last independent issues before that dynastic extinction.
