| Obverse description | Central field features a voided cross with a small ornamented quatrefoil or annulet at the centre, dividing the field into four quarters, each containing a wavy or wave-like decorative motif typical of Low Countries billon coinage of the fifteenth century. The design is enclosed within a beaded or pearled inner circle. A Gothic uncial legend encircles the entire composition within the outer border, reading the name and title of the issuing lord. |
