| Reverse description | Imperial double-headed eagle displayed with head turned sinister, nimbed with a halo, bearing a quartered composite shield of arms on its breast within a beaded circle. The quarters represent: 1st, ancient Hungary; 2nd, Bohemia; 3rd, Austria impaling ancient Burgundy; 4th, Spain with Castile and León. A small escutcheon of Upper Austria (Oberösterreich) is placed at the base of the shield, dividing the lower legend. The surrounding Latin legend, commencing at 12 o'clock, abbreviates 'Infans Hispaniae Archidux Austriae Dux Burgundiae'. |
