Reverse description The reverse presents a right-facing draped bust of Holy Roman Emperor Rudolf II, crowned and wearing a lace ruff collar and armored pauldron, rendered in fine hammered relief characteristic of late 16th-century German goldsmith work. The portrait is boldly modeled, conveying imperial authority. The circumferential legend D. RVDOLPHO. II. RO. IMP. - AVG. RESP. NORIBE. runs in Latin capitals around the bust within a beaded border, identifying the subject as Rudolf II, Roman Emperor Augustus, and the issuing authority as the Republic of Nuremberg.
