Reverse description Central device of two clasped and chained hands, symbolizing matrimonial union, surmounted by a crowned electoral hat and flanked by laurel and palm branches, all within a beaded inner circle. The letters M, D, and C appear in the angles of the klippe field outside the circle, with XXX at the left and G at the bottom, together forming the date MDCXXX (1630). A Latin legend around the central device reads OMNIA AD METAM, alluding to the motto associated with the wedding commemoration. The square klippe flan retains a beaded outer border with rosette ornaments at each corner.
