| Reverse description | A long cross divides the reverse field into four quadrants, each containing a distinct heraldic charge: the upper quadrants bear rampant lions, while the lower quadrants display oak branches or similar foliate devices, referencing the arms associated with the city of Neuss and its civic identity. The quadrants are framed within a plain inner circle, with the Latin legend of dedication to Saint Quirinus running around the periphery. The bold cross design and quartered heraldic composition are hallmarks of late medieval Rhenish municipal coinage produced by the hammered technique. |
