背面描述	The reverse displays, as a bracteate-like incuse mirror image, the same architectural motif visible on the obverse: a gabled city gate or portal with two flanking columns adorned with pellets, and to the right a rampant or passant animal figure, all in weak raised relief resulting from the single-die hammering technique. The field is flat and lightly textured, with scattered pellet impressions at the periphery corresponding to the obverse border. No inscription or legend appears on this face. The overall design is characteristic of the small anonymous civic Pfennige struck in the Upper Rhine region during the early fourteenth century.

附加信息	The "Vierzipfliger Pfennig" — the four-pointed or four-lobed pfennig — belongs to a broader bracteate-influenced tradition of thin, single-sided or near-single-sided silver coinage that proliferated across the Upper Rhine and Swiss territories from the thirteenth century onward. Schaffhausen's civic minting authority during this period operated in competition with episcopal and noble issues circulating across the same trade routes, making local identification marks essential. The four-lobed flan shape itself served as a regional authenticator as much as any die element.
