| Reverse description | Enthroned frontal effigy of a bishop, identified as the patron saint of Augsburg, wearing pontifical vestments and a mitre, with a nimbus behind the head. The figure holds a crozier in the left hand and raises the right hand in a gesture of benediction. The legend AVGVSTA VINDELICORVM encircles the figure within a beaded border, referencing the ancient Roman name of the city of Augsburg. The style reflects the late Gothic artistic tradition common to Swabian ecclesiastical coinage of the early sixteenth century. |
