| Reverse description | Central field displays a Tau cross (T) from which the Greek letters Alpha and Omega are suspended, a symbolic reference to Christ as the beginning and the end, framed within a beaded inner circle. The arrangement is characteristic of Mosan ecclesiastical coinage of the mid-11th century, with the TAW monogram prominently positioned above the suspended letters. A Latin legend around the periphery identifies the mint of Maastricht, separated from the central device by a plain or beaded border. |
