Reverse description Within a beaded inner circle, the Virgin Mary is depicted standing in three-quarter view, wearing a crown and flowing robes, holding the Christ Child before her; the figures are surrounded by stylized radiating flames or rays emanating from behind the Madonna, creating a mandorla-like aureole effect. The reverse composition reflects the late Gothic devotional style characteristic of Lower Saxon municipal coinage of the mid-sixteenth century.
