| Reverse description | Crowned Madonna seated facing, holding the Christ Child in her left arm and a sceptre in her right, surrounded by radiating flames within a beaded inner circle. The composition closely follows the Mariengroschen type established in the Lower Saxon and Westphalian tradition, with the Virgin depicted in a formal, hieratic style. The legend, partially abbreviated, runs around the periphery between the inner and outer beaded borders, invoking the Virgin Mary as Mother of God. |
