Reverse description The combined coat-of-arms of the three co-ruling princes within a cusped trefoil frame, prominently displaying the Saxon barry and Meissen lion quartered shield surmounted by a crown. The date 1488 appears within the surrounding Latin uncial legend, which runs continuously around the field between a beaded inner circle and the irregular hammered rim. The reverse composition mirrors the obverse in overall structure but incorporates distinct heraldic elements identifying the Schneeberg mint issue.
