| Reverse description | Saint Rupert, patron of Salzburg, depicted seated in full figure, holding a salt container (the saline vessel emblematic of his patronage) in one hand and a crozier in the other, all within a circle. The saint's head bisects the upper legend. The composition reflects the Romanesque ecclesiastical iconographic tradition associated with Salzburg coinage, with the saint rendered in a formal, hieratic style consistent with 16th-century South German minting practice. |
