| Reverse description | Central field features the crossed keys of St. Peter, the civic emblem of Riga, displayed in saltire with the bows uppermost, surrounded by a beaded inner circle. Below the keys, a small orb or pellet device is visible. The peripheral legend in Latin runs clockwise around the inner circle, separated from the keys motif by the beaded border. The hammered strike results in characteristic uneven surfaces and a slightly irregular coin outline consistent with mid-sixteenth-century Livonian small silver production. |
