| Reverse description | Elaborate quartered coat of arms incorporating the central escutcheon of Hesse, displaying the distinctive striped lion, supported within a richly decorated heraldic shield surmounted by three ornate crested helmets with mantling. The date 1593 appears at the close of the encircling Latin legend. The composition exemplifies the intricate heraldic engraving style characteristic of late sixteenth-century German thaler coinage. |
