| Reverse description | A short floriated cross occupies the central field, its arms terminating in decorative foliage. In each of the four angles formed by the cross arms, alternating charges of fleur-de-lis and passant lions are placed, referencing the heraldic emblems of the duchy. The design is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, beyond which the circumferential legend in Gothic script runs to the coin's edge. The overall composition follows the standard late medieval Low Countries stuiver type, with bold relief elements typical of hammered silver coinage of the period. |
