| Reverse description | A solitary palm tree depicted in the midst of a storm, its trunk bent yet unbroken and fronds swept by the wind, symbolising resilience — the personal impresa of Landgrave William V. The divine Tetragrammaton (YHWH) in Hebrew characters radiates in glory above the tree. No houses appear in the background. The encircling Latin legend closes with the date at the end of the inscription. |
