Reverse description Elaborately quartered and impaled coat of arms of Charles III Joseph of Lorraine, combining the arms of the Bishopric of Olomouc with those of the House of Lorraine and Bar, surmounted by a princely coronet. The central shield is flanked by supporters — a lion to the left and an eagle to the right — rendered in bold relief in the Baroque heraldic tradition. Eight decorative cartouche-like lobes radiate outward from the central armorial composition, forming a starburst-like arrangement. The date 1703 appears in the upper field, integrated within the circular legend. The peripheral legend reads DVX.LOTHAR:ET.BAR:S:R:I:PS:R.CA:BO:COMES, identifying Charles as Duke of Lorraine and Bar, Prince of the Holy Roman Empire.
