Obverse description Central field displays a standing figure, likely a bishop or saint in ecclesiastical vestments, rendered in low relief in the Gothic hammered style typical of early 15th-century Low Countries coinage. The figure appears frontal, holding a staff or crozier, set against a plain field with traces of a decorative border. A circular Latin legend in uncial script surrounds the central device, reading S · KAR · GISEBERT · DE · BA, invoking the name and title of Gilbert (Gisebert) of Bronckhorst-Batenburg. The flan is irregular and shows typical characteristics of hand-struck medieval silver coinage, with moderate wear and surface patination consistent with extended circulation.
