| Reverse description | A plain cross divides the reverse field into four quarters, with two opposing angles each bearing a small crown, a third angle containing three pellets arranged in a triangular grouping, and the fourth angle displaying a single pellet surmounted by a crown. This distinctive quartering pattern serves as a identifying feature of the Dax sterling issue. The surrounding peripheral legend in uncial Latin identifies the issuing city. The cross extends to the coin's edge, framing the four-part decorative arrangement in a manner typical of English-influenced sterling coinage produced in Gascony. |
