Reverse description A pointed Gothic shield bearing the arms of Mainz — a six-spoked wheel — displayed prominently at the centre of the field, set within a trefoil or Gothic cusped frame formed by three pointed lobes. The shield is finely rendered with hatching to indicate the heraldic tinctures. The surrounding circular legend in gothic uncial characters reads + MOnETA OPIDI PInGWEnSIS, identifying this as the coinage of the town of Bingen (Pinguis/Bingen am Rhein), enclosed within a beaded outer border.
