| Beschrijving voorzijde | Facing crowned bust of William IV, Lord of Horn, rendered in the crude yet characterful style typical of late 13th-century Low Countries sterlings. The crown is composed of three rosettes or fleurs, and the hair falls in stylized curls to either side of the face. The effigy is contained within a beaded inner circle, with the surrounding legend identifying the issuer. The die work reflects the influence of the English sterling prototype introduced under Edward I. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Horn was among the smallest of the Dutch lordships, and its coinage output was modest by any measure. William IV, lord of Horn in the late thirteenth century, struck these sterlings in direct imitation of the English penny — a practice widespread across the Low Countries after the type proved dominant in regional trade. The Mayhew classification places this issue firmly within the short-cross sterling tradition that flooded northern European markets following Edward I's monetary reforms of 1279.
