Reverse description Central device depicting a patriarchal cross and an archbishop's crosier crossed over one another, occupying the inner field of the coin. The date, rendered as the last two digits of the year (39 or 40), appears divided by the crossed cross and crosier. The entire central device is surrounded by a continuous Latin legend along the coin's periphery, struck in the rough, irregular style characteristic of hammered billon issues of the Livonian ecclesiastical mints.
