| Reverse description | The reverse presents a plain cross pattée extending to the coin's edge and dividing the field into four quarters, each containing a segment of the legend DE - MA - RA - NO, a reference to Merano, the mint city. The cross is set within a beaded circle, with the legend fragments positioned in the angles formed by the cross arms. The execution is characteristic of hammered medieval groschen coinage, with the lettering displaying the angular Gothic style typical of 13th-century Tyrolean issues. |
