| Reverse description | Central design features a cruciform arrangement of four interlaced crowned royal ciphers of Frederick William I (FW monograms), each pair crossed in saltire and surmounted by a royal crown, forming a symmetrical cross. At the center of the cross is a circular medallion containing the Prussian eagle displayed, facing left. Four crowned shields or ornamental devices occupy the angles between the arms of the cross. The circumferential Latin legend PRO DEO ET MILITE reads around the upper half, with the mint master's initials E · G · N· and the date 1738 (as seen on the illustrated example) appearing in the lower portion of the legend. The entire design is enclosed within a milled border. |
