| Reverse description | A large cross pattée with hatched or latticed internal decoration occupies the center of the field, rendered in the bold, angular style typical of hammered medieval coinage. The cross fills most of the inner circle, which is defined by a beaded border. The surrounding circular legend in uncial Latin characters reads: ✠ SALVE ✼ CRVX ✼ DIGNA ✼, a devotional inscription invoking the Holy Cross, with quatrefoil or star-shaped stops between words. |
