| Reverse description | A rampant Brandenburg lion facing left, rendered with vigorous detail, supports with its forepaws an ornate heraldic shield bearing the Hohenzollern eagle. The lion stands upon rocky ground with a palm frond visible to the left, conveying dynastic strength. The curved legend ZEHN EINE FEINE MARK arcs across the upper field, attesting to the coin's fineness standard of ten coins to the fine mark. In the lower exergue, the mint name SCHWABACH appears on a straight baseline, with the mintmaster's initials W and E flanking the date 1779, all within a beaded border. |
