| Reverse description | The reverse presents a bold cartouche of elaborate Baroque scrollwork with foliate ornaments at the top and bottom, enclosing a five-line Latin inscription in the field. The date 1685 appears in the lowest line within the cartouche. The design is entirely typographic in character, with no figurative imagery, relying entirely on the calligraphic quality of the lettering and the elegance of the surrounding ornamental frame. A reeded border runs along the coin's entire circumference, consistent with the obverse. |
