| Reverse description | Two crossed episcopal keys displayed in saltire, their ornate bow-ends facing outward and downward, occupying the central field within a beaded inner circle. The date digits are split by the keys, with '5' and '7' appearing in the upper and lower fields respectively, representing the year 1557. A continuous Latin legend in Gothic lettering surrounds the central device, identifying this as a new coin of Riga. The composition and style are consistent with hammered billon schillings of the Livonian Order. |
