| Reverse description | Saint Willibald, nimbed and standing facing, depicted in full figure holding a bishop's crozier in one hand and a bible in the other, positioned between an inner epicycloid border and an outer reeded circle. The saint's figure is rendered in the Gothic style typical of late 15th-century episcopal coinage, with the legend encircling the composition. |
