| Reverse description | Within a raised inner circle, a royal crown is depicted in the central field, rendered in a Gothic style with prominent arched points and decorative fleurons, consistent with Bohemian-Silesian civic coinage of the early sixteenth century. A beaded border frames the inner circle. The surrounding circumferential legend reads +CIVITAS SWIEN followed by the date, identifying the issuing authority as the City of Świdnica (Schweidnitz), in Latin uncial characters. |
