Reverse description A bold long cross divides the reverse field into four quarters, each containing a portion of the mint legend in uncial Gothic lettering, reading MON MAL MOI ENS — an abbreviation for Moneta Malmöensis, denoting the Malmö mint. The arms of the cross extend to a beaded inner circle, with the legend distributed one or two letters per quarter in a style typical of late medieval Scandinavian bracteate-influenced coinage. The flan is irregular in outline, consistent with hand-hammered production. Small pellets or stops appear between letter groups, and the cross itself is plain without additional ornamentation in the angles.
