Reverse description Two clasped right hands rendered in bold relief, occupying the central field and symbolising concord or alliance — the classical dextrarum iunctio motif adopted from Roman and Byzantine coinage. The hands are depicted with pronounced finger detail, giving the design a striking, almost pictographic quality. The inscription NIE appears above the clasped hands, divided across the upper field, with an inverted letter A positioned below, likely a degenerate survival of a longer legend. The composition is enclosed within the irregular flan, with the lettering arranged in the field around the central device.
