Reverse description A long cross pattée extending to the inner legend divides the reverse field into four quarters, each containing one letter of the abbreviation FLAD` — the contracted form of FLANDRIE — arranged symmetrically in the angles of the cross. The arms of the cross terminate at the surrounding legend, with the characteristic pattée flaring at each extremity. The circumferential inscription, separated by decorative stops, runs continuously around the field within a beaded border. The overall composition follows the standard Burgundian cross-type reverse design employed for Flemish groot coinage of the early fifteenth century.
