| Obverse lettering | GVILM DE SOB REFFE DS DE R (Translation: William of Sombreffe, Lord of Reckheim) |
| Reverse description | A plain long cross with footed terminals extends to the inner beaded circle, dividing the reverse field into four quarters. Each quarter contains pellets or small annulets as decorative fillers, consistent with late medieval Low Countries billon coinage. The encircling legend in uncial Latin script contains a devotional invocation referencing the new coinage of Reckheim and a blessing in the name of the Lord, separated by stops. A beaded border frames both the legend and the central cross motif. |
