| Reverse description | A floriated long cross with a fleur-de-lis at the center and at each terminal, dividing the field into four quarters, each canton adorned with a trefoil or floral ornament. The arms of the cross extend to an inner beaded circle, beyond which runs the circumferential legend punctuated by trefoils. The composition is characteristic of the late Burgundian billon coinage struck during the Ghent Revolt regency period. |
