Reverse description Elaborate baroque crowned coat of arms of the House of Liechtenstein displayed centrally, consisting of a large quartered shield surmounted by a princely crown and flanked by two draped mantles or curtains swept outward to either side. A saintly or angelic half-figure appears above the shield beneath the crown, adding devotional character to the heraldic composition. The legend encircles the design along the periphery, incorporating the date 1728 at the top, and reading OPP:& CARN:DUX·C·RITB:GRAN:HISP:P:CLAS:S·C·M·INT·CONS, abbreviating further titles including Duke of Opava and Krnov, Count of Rietberg, Grandee of Spain, and Imperial Privy Councillor. The overall design is richly detailed in the high baroque style typical of Holy Roman Empire silver coinage of the period.
