| Beschrijving keerzijde | A long cross pattée extends to the inner circle, dividing the reverse field into four quarters. In the alternate angles appear the heraldic lion of Flanders and the fleur-de-lis of France, arranged in opposing pairs. The arms of the cross are boldly rendered in the hammered style typical of Burgundian Low Countries issues. A beaded inner circle separates the central design from the peripheral legend, which is interrupted by the cross terminals. The inscription in uncial Gothic lettering encircles the entire design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Charles the Bold inherited Flanders from his father Philip the Good in 1467 and almost immediately restructured the coinage of the Burgundian Netherlands through the monetary ordinance of 1468, which mandated a unified billon standard across his territories. The Vierlander — so named because it circulated across four lands simultaneously — was a direct product of that administrative push toward monetary integration in the Low Countries.
The .479 fineness reflects a deliberate compromise, low enough to conserve silver while maintaining credibility against competing regional issues flooding Flemish markets.
