| Reverse description | A five-line German commemorative inscription fills the entire field, recording the prize awarded at the Great Shooting Festival held in Neisse, with the date '*A·1612*' prominently displayed at the top of the legend and the date '19 AVGVS' (19 August) appearing in the bottom line. Star and rosette ornaments punctuate the text and surround the inscription. The bold, raised lettering in the early seventeenth-century style occupies nearly the full flan, bordered by a beaded outer rim. |
