| Reverse description | The heraldic eagle of Frankfurt displayed with wings spread, head turned to the left, surmounted by an imperial crown above. The eagle is rendered in the elaborate baroque style typical of 17th-century German civic coinage, with finely engraved feather detail on the wings and body. The circumferential legend, reading NOMEN • DOMINI • TVRRIS • FORTISSIMA, encircles the eagle, with the date 1648 positioned at the top of the field above the crown, commemorating the Peace of Westphalia. |
