| Reverse description | The Luxembourgish heraldic shield, charged with a crowned lion rampant, is placed to the left of center over a long pattée cross that extends to divide the field into four quarters and interrupts the surrounding legend. The legend is contained between inner and outer pearled circles, consistent with the monetary conventions of the period. The overall composition is characteristic of late medieval Luxembourgian gros coinage, with the lion rendered in bold relief. |
