| Reverse description | Full-length standing figure of Saint Vitus, patron saint of Corvey, depicted frontally holding a palm branch and book, with a bird perched upon or beside him and a recumbent lion at his feet, all attributes emblematic of his martyrdom and patronage. The composition is rendered in a formal baroque style befitting the ecclesiastical dignity of the issuing abbey. The Roman numeral date MDCCXVIII appears in the exergue below the figure. The circumferential Latin legend names the saint and his role as patron of Corvey. |
