| Reverse description | Within a beaded inner circle, a frontal spread eagle with wings displayed and lowered is depicted in the central field, a heraldic device closely associated with the Hohenstaufen imperial dynasty. The eagle's head faces right and the overall rendering is bold and stylized, consistent with hammered billon coinage of the period. A circular Latin legend naming Constance as Empress surrounds the inner circle. The reverse design, pairing the imperial eagle with Constance's title, underscores the joint rule of Henry VI and Constance over the Kingdom of Sicily. |
