| Reverse description | Within a beaded inner circle, two nimbed figures — interpreted as God the Father and Christ, or alternately as two Protestant faithful — are depicted seated together in an embrace or close proximity, symbolizing divine unity and Protestant steadfastness. An angelic head with wings appears at the top of the inner field. Flames and a devil-like figure rise at the lower left, reinforcing the anti-Interim polemical theme. The surrounding legend in Gothic lettering reads DIT. IS. MIN. LEVE. SON. DEN. S. GI. HO., a Low German phrase conveying Lutheran theological defiance against the imposed Augsburg Interim. |
