Meticulously cast, with straight, smooth sides, the pit end crude and lightly filed in its time, with deep pit filled with orange encrustation, the markings on one of the broader sides very bold and full, deeply impressed, and in fact recently attributed to a known assayer by Arent Pol of the Geldmuseum in Utrecht.
