| Reverse description | A double-headed eagle displayed occupies the central field, rendered in the bold, schematic style typical of 13th-century Rhenish hammered deniers. The two heads face outward to left and right respectively, with spread wings filling the flan. This imperial eagle motif reflects the close ties of the Guelders counts to the Holy Roman Empire. The surrounding Latin legend identifying the mint town of Arnhem runs along the pearled border. |
