| Reverse description | Eight-line funerary inscription in German within a beaded inner circle, commemorating the birth and death of Margrave Joachim Ernest. The legend surrounding the field reads 'DER HER IST MEIN SCHILT AVF DEN ICH TRAWE' (The Lord is my shield in whom I trust). The central inscription records his birth at Cölln an der Spree on 11 June 1583, his death at Onolzbach (Ansbach) on 25 February 1625, and his reign of 22 years. The text is presented in a clear, upright Roman letterform typical of early German Baroque memorial coinage. |
