| Aversbeschreibung | Central field displays the elaborate crowned arms of the City of Magdeburg, depicting a crowned armored figure standing between two fortified towers on a shield, supported by the wings of a displayed imperial eagle. The composition is richly rendered in high relief with scrollwork and foliate ornament at the base. A continuous Latin legend in raised letters encircles the design within a beaded border, reading MO · NO · REIP · MAGDB · DE · IVBILÆO Ao · C · 1617, identifying the coin as a new issue of the Republic of Magdeburg struck for the centenary jubilee year of Christ 1617. The overall style reflects the vigorous German Renaissance engraving tradition characteristic of early seventeenth-century Saxon mint work. |

| Reversbeschreibung | The reverse presents a finely engraved double portrait within a circular inner field, depicting two facing busts in three-quarter view: at left, Jan Hus wearing a clerical hat and gown, and at right, Martin Luther in contemporary ecclesiastical dress, both shown consulting an open book or Bible held between them, symbolizing their shared prophetic and reforming mission. A dense continuous Latin inscription in raised letters fills the surrounding legend band, referencing Hus's martyrdom by burning in 1415 and Luther's divinely inspired restoration of heavenly doctrine in 1517, framed within a beaded border. The composition commemorates the centenary of the Protestant Reformation and reflects the strong Lutheran civic identity of Magdeburg. The portraiture is executed in the bold, somewhat schematic style typical of German hammered commemorative coinage of the early seventeenth century. |
