| Reverse description | A floriated cross occupying the full field, with the quartered Hohenzollern arms — displaying alternating black and white (or silver and sable) quarters — emblazoned on a central shield at the crossing. A small shield of arms is placed in each of the four angles formed by the cross. The date is divided by the mintmaster's symbol and appears at the top of the design. The reverse legend, a biblical verse from Romans 8:31, encircles the entire composition within a beaded border. |
