| Reverse description | A quartered coat of arms displayed on an ornate baroque shield, incorporating a smaller central inescutcheon that is itself quartered, representing the combined heraldic arms of the see and the bishop's personal lineage. Surmounting the shield is the Cardinal's galero with dependent tassels arranged in rows on either side, the canonical insignia of a high ecclesiastical dignitary. The surrounding legend, beginning at 12 o'clock, carries the pious motto in Latin, with the year of issue placed at the conclusion of the inscription. The overall heraldic design is executed in the elaborate ornamental style typical of late Baroque Silesian ecclesiastical coinage. |
