A circular Latin legend surrounds the scene, incorporating the Roman numeral date ANNO MDCXIIII (1614) and commemorative inscriptions referencing the auspicious occasion of the castle's construction or dedication. The composition reflects the celebratory character of the issue, combining heraldic precision with topographical realism typical of early seventeenth-century German commemorative coinage. |
