Reverse description A solitary tower stands firmly amid a tempest-tossed sea, with billowing storm clouds to either side from which winds blow forcefully against the structure, symbolizing steadfast resistance. The composition serves as an allegorical emblem of constancy and immovability. The date MDXCIII (1593) in Roman numerals is incorporated into the clockwise circumferential legend, which reads RESISTIT * MDXCIII * IMMOTA, meaning 'It resists, unmoved,' a motto reflecting the archbishop's resolve and the enduring strength of the see.
