| Beschrijving keerzijde | Within a beaded inner circle, a stylized tree — the heraldic linden tree of the Livonian Order — rises from the base of the field, its branches rendered in a decorative medieval manner consistent with hammered billon pfennig coinage of the period. The device fills the central field and is enclosed by a circular legend in uncial Latin characters running along the coin's outer periphery. |

Wolter von Plettenberg, Master of the Livonian Order from 1494, secured the Order's most celebrated military victory at the Battle of Smolina in 1502 against Muscovite forces — buying the region decades of relative stability. This joint issue with Archbishop Jasper Linde reflects the uneasy but pragmatic power-sharing arrangement between the Order and the Archbishopric that defined Livonian governance throughout the period, with coinage serving as one of the few arenas where that relationship was formally codified in metal.
Billon struck this light was prone to immediate wear, and the die variety distinguishing the smooth-bottomed shield with right-half shading — catalogued specifically in Haljak II — suggests multiple working dies were in simultaneous use at Riga.
