| Reverse description | The reverse presents a dramatic scene within a milled border, depicting a figure in the central field engaged with a large animal, possibly a lion or bear, in a struggle or confrontational pose, executed in bold Baroque relief. To the left of the scene, rays of light or a sunburst emanate from the lower field, adding a divine or emblematic quality to the composition. The circular Latin legend SEGNE MICH (meaning 'Bless Me') arches around the upper portion of the coin, forming a devotional companion motto to the obverse inscription, consistent with the pious character of Nuremberg's 18th-century gold ducat series. |
