Reverse description The reverse features an entirely inscriptional design without figurative elements, save for a small eight-pointed star ornament positioned above the central text and a small floral rosette at the base of the legend. The peripheral legend, running clockwise around the beaded border, records the name of the newborn heir: FRIEDR. WILH. LUDW. AUG. ERBGROSSH. V. BADEN. Arcing below the star in the upper field is the birth date GEB. 9. JULI 1857, while the central field carries a three-line commemorative inscription reading CARLSRUHE / DER JUGEND / ZUR ERINNERUNG, meaning 'Karlsruhe — In remembrance for the youth.' The overall design serves as a keepsake distributed to the populace to mark the birth of the hereditary Grand Duke.
