| Reverse description | The Virgin Mary, depicted as Madonna, is shown standing and facing left, holding the Christ Child in her arms. The figure is rendered in a Gothic style typical of late medieval Baltic coinage, set within the coin's field and fully encircled by the devotional legend. The overall composition is characteristic of the Marian imagery common to Livonian ecclesiastical and military order coinage of the early sixteenth century. |
