| Reverse description | A bold cross pattée divides the reverse field into four quadrants, each canton bearing a besant (pellet or annulet); the besant in the second quadrant is additionally surmounted by a crescent moon, serving as a distinctive episcopal mintmark. The design is characteristic of Rhenish ecclesiastical pfennig coinage of the late Salian period. The surrounding circular legend reads +SCA WORMACIA, invoking the sanctity of the city of Worms, enclosed within a beaded border. |
