| Reverse description | Detailed perspective view of the Carolinum Gymnasium building in Ansbach, depicted as a large symmetrical baroque structure with a central domed tower surmounted by a crown finial. Radiating sunbeams emanate from above the roofline, symbolizing enlightenment and royal patronage. The architectural rendering occupies the full field of the coin, with clouds flanking the sunburst in the upper register. In the exergue, a three-line Latin inscription records the inauguration of the gymnasium in the city in the Roman numeral year MDCCXXXVI. |
