| Reverse description | An eagle displayed occupies the central field, set within a beaded inner circle. The bird is depicted with wings spread and head turned, rendered in a stylized medieval manner typical of Baltic ecclesiastical coinage. A circular Latin legend surrounds the inner device, identifying the mint city of Hapsal, and is bounded by a beaded border along the outer edge. |
