| Reverse description | A bold pattée or voided cross dominates the reverse field, its arms extending to a central raised circle enclosing a small cross motif. The cross divides the field into four quadrants, each containing letters from the mint name DIVSBVRG, arranged between the arms. An outer dotted or beaded circle frames the design, with the legend distributed around the periphery, identifying the Duisburg mint. The overall composition is typical of Ottonian and Salian-era German pfennige, emphasizing the symbolic importance of the cross. |
