Reverse description A large heraldic composition centered on the personal arms of Archbishop Werner of Falkenstein, presented within a pointed trefoil frame. Flanking the central shield are two additional armorial shields — to the left the cross of Trier and to the right the wheel of Mainz or a similar electoral device — while dragon heads occupy the corner lobes of the trefoil. The overall arrangement is typical of the quadrilobe goldgulden reverse type struck at the Offenbach mint under Werner's authority. A beaded inner border surrounds the composition, with the mint legend in uncial Gothic lettering running around the outer periphery.
