| Reverse description | Central field displays a multi-line Latin devotional inscription ORE ET CORDE S.P.Q.W. SUBM. OFFERT (offering with mouth and heart, the Senate and People of Würzburg humbly present) enclosed within a wreath of laurel branches tied at the base with a small escutcheon. At the top, a radiant Tetragrammaton in Hebrew characters (יהוה) emits rays of divine light, flanked by the beaded border. The overall composition reflects the New Year's gift (Neujahrs Gulden) character of the issue. |
