| Reverse description | Reverse depicts Saint George on horseback in full armour, shown in right profile as he slays the dragon beneath the horse's hooves with his lance. The mounted saint is rendered in bold relief, with the horse rearing dramatically over the writhing dragon below. A crowned helmet or ornament appears above the scene. The devotional Latin legend, referencing Psalm 115 ('Not unto us, O Lord, not unto us, but unto Thy name give glory'), encircles the design within a beaded border. The composition reflects the strong religious imagery common to Mansfeld coinage of this period. |
