| Reverse description | A short floriated cross occupies the central field, its arms terminating in foliate finials and flanked by four curved lobes that together form a quadrilobe quartering the design. Each of the four angles between the cross arms contains a cluster of three pellets arranged in triangular formation. A beaded inner border separates the central device from the circumferential Latin monetary legend, the whole executed in the hammered Gothic style typical of Hainaut gros coinage of the period. |
