| Reverse description | A bold plain cross with extended arms divides the reverse field into four quadrants, each containing a curved arc of pellets forming a partial circle, a design characteristic of the Dordrecht mint coinage of John I. The four arcs of beading together suggest a stylized quadrilobe or four-arc motif within the cross. The surrounding circumscription, partially legible on the irregular flan, reads MONETA DOR D CI, identifying this as the money of Dordrecht. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded border along the coin's edge. |
