| Reverse description | Incuse mirror image of the obverse, as is characteristic of thin bracteate coinage of this type. The Basel arms featuring the crozier appear in negative relief, with the surrounding pellet border visible in reverse impression. The thin fabric of the flan causes the obverse design to be reproduced in sunken form on the reverse, with no independent design elements. |
