| Reverse description | Central shield or rounded device bearing a crossed sword and papal key in saltire, with a small oak branch or tree motif between them, all enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The composition references the ecclesiastical authority of the Bishopric of Dorpat, combining the sword of temporal power with the key of Saint Peter. A circular Latin legend in uncial script surrounds the central device. The overall execution is typical of early sixteenth-century Livonian hammered billon coinage, with irregular flan shape and variable strike depth. |
