| Reverse description | Facing stylised royal bust of King Henry III (Holy Roman Emperor) depicted frontally within a beaded inner circle, rendered in the schematic Ottonian-Salian tradition. The bust wears a prominent crown with arch-like projections and is flanked by pellets, with a beaded collar or chain indicated below the chin. The surrounding legend reads ✠ HENRICVS RE, identifying the suzerain king, and the outer field is filled with a radiating ray or wedge pattern typical of contemporary Low Countries penningen. The hammered flan is irregularly shaped, consistent with hand-struck workshop production. |
