Reverse description Central device depicts a square, stepped furnace or smelting tower constructed of dressed stone blocks, with flames issuing prominently from its open top, symbolizing the iron-working and mining industry of the Abbey of Saint Blaise at Gutenburg. The furnace rests upon a hatched ground line. Surrounding the central device within a beaded border is the Latin motto legend EX. DVRO. LIQVIDVM. REDDITVR., meaning 'From the hard, the liquid is rendered,' a direct allusion to the smelting process. The design is bold and emblematic, reflecting the ecclesiastical and industrial authority of the issuing abbey.
