Reverse description A radiant sun with emanating rays dominates the upper field, beneath which a grapevine laden with clusters of grapes grows from the ground, serving as the central motif. A circular Latin legend in the field incorporates a chronogram yielding the date 1742, with the engraver's initials C.D.C. appearing in the exergue area. A further inscription PS. LXXX references Psalm 80, alluding to the vine as a symbol of the Evangelical congregation. The overall composition reflects the emblematic allegorical style characteristic of 18th-century German commemorative coinage.
