| Reverse description | A cross potent occupying the central field, with three pellets arranged in two of the four quarters formed by the arms of the cross. The design is boldly struck in the hammered style characteristic of Sicilian medieval coinage, with the cross serving as the dominant heraldic device. A circular Latin legend surrounds the cross, reading + IERL' SICIL RE, an abbreviation for Hierusalem et Siciliae Rex, referencing Frederick II's titles as King of Jerusalem and Sicily. |
