| Reverse description | The shield of Aachen — bearing the imperial double-headed eagle — is superimposed at the centre of a long ornate cross with floriated, trefoil-terminated arms, the cross extending to the inner circle and creating four quarters in the field. A beaded inner circle frames the central device. The surrounding legend in Gothic uncial characters, divided across the four quadrants of the cross, reads VRBS AQUENSIS REGNI SECES (City of Aachen, Seat of the Kingdom), with the date 1491 incorporated into the legend. |
