| Reverse description | The elaborately quartered Baroque coat of arms of Hesse-Darmstadt, featuring the Hessian lion and other territorial charges arranged within a manifold shield surmounted by a crown, encircled by an ornate cartouche. The date appears incorporated within the surrounding Latin legend, which names the Landgrave's titles. The overall composition is characteristic of mid-17th century German heraldic coinage, with fine engraving of the armorial details. |
