Reverse description A shield bearing three passant lions arranged in pale occupies the central field, representing the arms of the City of Reval. The shield is set within a beaded inner circle, surrounded by the encircling Latin legend. The design is typical of the civic coinage of Reval under Swedish suzerainty, with the heraldic device clearly rendered despite the limitations of the hammered technique and irregular flan.
