| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field displays a short cross pattee with splayed, slightly concave arms, set within a plain inner circle enclosed by a beaded border. The arms of the cross extend nearly to the inner circle, filling the field in the manner typical of sterling-type coinage of the Low Countries. The surrounding legend in uncial Latin characters runs between the beaded inner border and the irregular outer rim of the flan. The overall design follows the conventional sterling format widespread in the southern Low Countries during the reign of John III. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
John III of Brabant issued this small silver denomination during a period when the duchy was deeply entangled in the financial machinery of Edward III's war preparations against France. Brabant served as a key staging ground and creditor territory for the English crown in the late 1330s, and the monetary output of John's mints reflected that pressure — high volume, small weight, rapidly evolving types.
Witte 368 places this among the lighter sterling fractions of the sequence, a weight reduction already visible in the flan before wear is factored in.
