| Reverse description | Uniface issue; the reverse is entirely blank, presenting a plain, unworked silver surface devoid of any design, inscription, or ornamental detail. This is characteristic of emergency klippe coinage struck under siege or wartime conditions, where expediency precluded the use of a reverse die. The surface shows the natural texture of the hammered silver flan. |
