Reverse description Central field presents the quartered arms of Saxony — barry of ten or and sable, impaling a crowned rampant lion — surmounted by a princely crown and flanked by heraldic supporters, all within a beaded inner circle. The mintmaster's initials H L appear in the lower field beneath the shield. The surrounding Latin circumferential legend reads DVC:SAX:ABBAT:QVEDLIN H L, identifying the abbess as Duchess of Saxony and Abbess of Quedlinburg. The composition and style are consistent with hammered gold ducats of the early Thirty Years' War period.
