Beschrijving keerzijde A plain cross with equal arms divides the reverse field into four quadrants. Two opposing quadrants each contain the letter D, while the remaining two quadrants each contain a single pellet. The cross extends close to the irregular flan edge, and the overall composition is characteristic of episcopal small coinage from the Tournai region in the second half of the 12th century. No marginal legend is present, consistent with the anepigraphic designation of this issue.

Aanvullende informatie

Tournai's episcopal mint operated under chronic tension between the bishops and the city's burghers, who secured communal rights by 1147 — meaning coins of this period were struck against a backdrop of negotiated and frequently contested minting authority. The absence of a legend on so small a flan likely reflects practical limits of the die-cutter's art at this module rather than deliberate policy.
