| Reverse description | A detailed panoramic view of the fortified city of Toruń occupies the central field, depicting towers, city walls, gates, and buildings rendered in a naive but vivid architectural style characteristic of early 17th-century siege commemoratives. The cityscape is shown under threat, evoking the Swedish siege of 1629. A circular Latin legend surrounds the entire composition along the outer border, reading SIGNVM PROBATA FIDES ET CONSTANTIA PERIGNE, attesting to the proven faith and steadfastness of the citizens. |
