Reverse description The rampant lion of Guelders, the heraldic device of the Duchy, depicted passant-rampant to the left within a plain inner circle. The lion is shown with open jaws, raised forepaws, and a curled tail, rendered in the bold, somewhat crude style typical of hammered copper coinage of this period. The design is enclosed within a prominent rope or cable border that fills the outer field of the reverse, a characteristic feature of this issue. The field is otherwise blank, with no legend or exergual inscription.
