| Reverse description | A ram passant is depicted in the central field, advancing to the left while turning its head to the right, with a waving banner or flag staff rising behind it — an allusion to Gotland's traditional heraldic emblem. The figure is rendered with characteristic sixteenth-century engraving style, displaying naturalistic detail in the animal's fleece and posture. A continuous Latin legend encircles the design, proclaiming the coin as new coinage of the island of Gotland. The mintmaster's initial B appears within the legend, attributing the issue to the Visby mint under its responsible official. |
