Reverse description A two-fold heraldic shield, impaling the arms of the Archbishopric of Trier (a cross) with the personal arms of Otto of Ziegenhain, set within a pointed Gothic trilobe or trefoil frame with cusped lobes, the whole disposed on a flat hammered field. The shield is presented in the Gothic pointed form characteristic of early fifteenth-century German ecclesiastical coinage. A circular legend in Gothic uncial script surrounds the trilobe, reading MONETA NOVA AUREA OUEN, identifying this as a new gold coin of Ziegenhain.
