| Reverse description | Full-length frontal figure of Saint John the Evangelist, nimbed and heavily draped in flowing robes, standing on a small platform or base within a beaded inner circle. The saint cradles the Agnus Dei (Lamb of God) in his left arm, a traditional iconographic attribute of Saint John the Baptist as patron of Frankfurt. The figure is rendered in the flat, stylized Gothic manner typical of Rhenish goldgulden of the period. The surrounding legend MOnETA nO C FRAnCFVR, identifying this as the new coinage of the city of Frankfurt, runs clockwise between the inner and outer beaded borders. |
