Reverse description Central field features the Electoral hat of Saxony rendered in high relief, flanked by two addorsed eagles displayed with spread wings, all set within a beaded inner circle. The composition is executed in the late Gothic decorative style typical of mid-sixteenth-century Saxon coinage. The continuous Latin legend occupies the outer field between two beaded borders, referencing Moritz's titles as Landgrave of Thuringia, Margrave of Meissen, and Count of the Mark.
