| Reverse description | The crowned Saxon coat of arms — a quartered and barry shield traversed by a diagonal bend — is centrally displayed, flanked by the divided date 18-24. The upper legend DER SEGEN DES BERGBAUES (The Blessing of Mining) arcs around the upper periphery, marking this as an Ausbeute (mining proceeds) issue. Along the lower periphery, the fineness statement ZEHN EINE F. M. (ten to one fine mark) is inscribed, with the mint master initials G.S. appearing below the shield in the exergue. Decorative floral stops punctuate the reverse legend. |
