| Reverse description | Inscription arranged in three lines across the field, reading A / BEИ / ᗡI, representing a degenerate or retrograde rendering of the episcopal or place name legend common on Alsatian and Rhenish deniers of the period. The lettering is crude and partially mirrored, typical of the declining epigraphic standards seen in hammered bracteate-related coinage of the 12th century. The coin is struck on an irregular flan with a beaded border along the periphery. No additional design elements are present in the field. |
