| Reverse description | Central crowned composite coat of arms of Prince-Bishop Charles the Posthumous, flanked on either side by the mitred episcopal arms of Brixen and Wrocław, each accompanied by a crosier rising behind the shield. The heraldic composition is rendered in the elaborate baroque armorial style typical of early seventeenth-century ecclesiastical coinage, with the crowns and mitres finely detailed. The date 1618 is incorporated into the circumferential legend, split as 16 · 18 flanking a crossed-swords mint or privy mark. The reverse legend proclaims Charles's dual episcopal dignity as Bishop of Brixen and Wrocław. |
