Reverse description Central device depicting the enthroned Virgin Mary with the Christ Child, both crowned, in a frontal devotional composition consistent with the Mariengroschen type widely circulated in northern Germany during the sixteenth century. The figures are set within a beaded inner circle, with the surrounding Latin legend MARIA. MAT. - RIP S STRV. referencing the Virgin as Mother and the territorial or mint attribution. The reverse design follows the established iconographic tradition of the Mariengroschen denomination, with the sacred imagery rendered in a simplified but recognizable hammered style.
