| Reverse description | Central quartered heraldic shield bearing the arms of Guelders and Jülich, flanked on either side by rampant lions serving as supporters. The shield is ornately rendered with elaborate foliate or strapwork mantling surrounding it. The circular marginal legend EQVITA IVDICIA TVA DOMIN, a biblical invocation meaning 'Justice is your Judgement, O Lord', runs around the periphery of the coin. The overall composition is typical of late medieval Low Countries coinage, with bold, deeply struck heraldic imagery occupying the majority of the reverse field. |
