| Obverse description | Bareheaded effigy of Count Arnold V in profile facing left, rendered in a bold, somewhat stylised medieval manner characteristic of Low Countries penny coinage. The bust is set within a beaded inner circle, with the circumscribed legend running between the inner and outer borders. The portrait shows schematic facial features with visible drapery at the shoulder, closely following the 'Holland style' typology common to the late 13th-century southern Low Countries. |
