Reverse description Central field features a single-headed eagle displayed with wings spread and head turned to the left, serving as a dynastic or civic emblem associated with Nijmegen. The eagle is rendered in the bold, stylized manner typical of 13th-century Rhenish-influenced medieval die work. The motif is enclosed within a beaded or rope-like inner circle. The surrounding legend reads ✠ NVMAGENE, the Latin toponym for Nijmegen, identifying the mint city. The irregular flan and worn high relief are consistent with hammered silver deniers of the mid-13th century.
