| Reverse description | The reverse displays a heavily worn field with the faint remnants of a decorative design, likely consisting of floral and foliate motifs or a stylized wreath arrangement consistent with contemporary Aachen copper coinage. The surfaces show significant die wear and flan cracking, typical of hammered copper issues of this period. No legible legend or inscription is discernible. The overall composition mirrors the decorative border style seen on the obverse, suggesting a symmetrical artistic treatment intended for a utilitarian circulation piece. |
