| Reverse description | Central device features a plain cross pattee within a double beaded inner circle, dividing the inner field into four quadrants. A secondary inner legend band carries the opening words of the religious formula in Gothic Latin script, separated by stops and a cross. The outer legend identifies the mint of Arnhem. The flat, open cross design follows the standard gros tournois-derived type widely adopted across the Low Countries duchies in the 14th century. The flan is irregular, as typical of hammered coinage of this period. |
