| Reverse description | The elaborately quartered and helmeted arms of Württemberg occupy the center of the field, flanked by ornate baroque mantling and supported by heraldic figures. A crowned figure with outstretched arms surmounts the helm as a crest. The outer legend CUM DEO ET DIE runs along the upper periphery, while the inner legend VON GEWACHSENEN SILBER AUS DER FUNDGR. 3. K. STERN encircles the arms, referring to the silver mined from the Duchy's mines. The date 17/28 is split and appears at the lower field on either side of the shield, with a toothed border enclosing the entire design. |
