| Reverse description | Central design featuring the arms of the city of Riga: a fortified castle gateway with a tower, surmounted by crossed keys, flanked on either side by rampant lions serving as heraldic supporters. The entire composition is enclosed within a circular Latin legend denoting the coin's status as a new gold coinage of the city of Riga, with the last two digits of the date appearing in the legend. The design is executed in the stylized heraldic manner typical of late 16th-century Baltic municipal coinage. |
