| Reverse description | A short floriated cross with a rosette at its center occupies the full field, its arms terminating in decorative foliations. The four angles of the cross are filled with alternating fleur-de-lis and crowns, arranged in a regular pattern. The circumferential legend, separated from the design by an inner circle, runs continuously around the field in Gothic uncial lettering. The overall design is symmetrical and typical of Burgundian Netherlandish gold coinage of the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries. |
