Reverse description A triskelion — a three-armed rotational device — prominently displayed in the center of the field, with each of the three angles formed by the radiating arms containing a single Latin letter: R, A, and M respectively. The triskelion arms are bold and stylized, radiating from a central point in a pinwheel arrangement. The design fills the flan with a beaded border visible along the irregular edge, consistent with early twelfth-century Crusader hammered copper coinage from Antioch.
