| Reverse description | The quartered arms of the Abbey of Fulda displayed on an ornate baroque shield, surmounted by a patriarchal cross and supported by two rampant lions as heraldic supporters, all within a finely engraved composition. The crozier and sword, symbols of the abbatial and princely authority respectively, appear flanking the achievement. The date 1738 is inscribed in the exergue below the shield, with the mint master's initials N·D (for Johann Nikolaus Dittmar) flanking the date. The legend VERITATE·ET·IVSTITIA, meaning 'With Truth and Justice', runs along the beaded border. |
