| Reverse description | Full-length facing figures of the two patron saints of Salzburg, St. Rudbertus (left) and St. Virgilius (right), seated side by side on thrones and facing one another. St. Rudbertus holds a salt barrel and a crozier, while St. Virgilius holds a model of Salzburg Cathedral and a crozier; both saints wear episcopal vestments and mitres. A depiction of the cathedral or ecclesiastical architecture is rendered between and below the two figures in the lower field. The circular Latin legend runs clockwise from the top, identifying both saints as bishops of Salzburg. |
