| Reverse description | Five lines of Latin inscription boldly struck in capital letters within a lozenge-shaped field, reading I / VRCK / BIEGERT / WIEN / 1529, meaning 'The Turk besieges Vienna 1529.' The lettering fills the entire field without a surrounding legend, typical of hastily produced siege emergency coinage. The plain border follows the diamond orientation of the square flan. |
