| Reverse description | A bold cross pattée dominates the central field, its arms extending to an inner beaded circle and dividing an inner legend into four segments. The reverse design follows the standard Flemish-influenced groot type of the period, with a broad flat cross and Gothic uncial lettering. An outer legend separated by lozenge stops occupies the area between the inner and outer beaded borders, bearing a devotional inscription. The overall workmanship is consistent with hammered coinage produced in the Utrecht episcopal mint during the late fourteenth century. |
