Reverse description The Agnus Dei (Lamb of God) depicted in profile walking to the left, head turned to face right, with a waving banner or flag behind, a common devotional motif in late medieval Scandinavian coinage. The central device is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, surrounded by a circular Latin legend in uncial script invoking divine mercy. The reverse legend reads AGNE · DEI · HISERERE · HEI, a phonetic rendering of the liturgical phrase Agnus Dei, miserere mei. The overall composition reflects the pious iconographic tradition prevalent on Baltic and Hanseatic-influenced coinages of the period.
