| Reverse description | A large crowned quartered coat of arms of the Counts of Stolberg fills the central field, the complex heraldic device displaying the various quarterings associated with the comital house. The date is divided by the shield, with '17' to the left and '45' (or relevant year) to the right, and the mintmaster's initials appear below. A circular Latin legend surrounds the shield, referencing the dominions and titles of the issuing counts. The elaborate royal crown surmounting the arms is rendered in fine detail consistent with high-quality Baroque die work. |
