Reverse description A quartered heraldic shield occupying the central field, displaying the arms of Castile and León in the Spanish royal tradition — castles and lions alternating in the four quarters — surmounted by a large imperial crown. The shield is enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The surrounding legend SUB.VMBRA.ALARVM.TVARV (an abbreviated form of 'Sub umbra alarum tuarum', meaning 'Under the shadow of Thy wings') encircles the design, reflecting the pious motto adopted by the city of Zwolle on its coinage.
