| Reverse description | The reverse presents a large, polished central medallion field containing the four-line Latin inscription ILLE / INEQUIS / ETCVRRI / BVS in bold, well-spaced capital letters with ornamental stops, forming part of the devotional phrase from Psalm 20 referencing trust in God rather than chariots and horses. The central roundel is surrounded by an elaborate wreath or foliate border of acanthus-style scrollwork rendered in deeply carved relief, filling the entire outer field to the rim. The composition is characteristic of the emblematic Reformation-era civic coinage of Kronstadt, emphasizing piety over military power. |
