| Reverse description | A palm tree bent dramatically by a violent storm occupies the central field, its fronds swept forcefully to one side, while a fortified town with church towers is visible in the background at the base. Above, rays of divine light emanate from the Tetragrammaton (the Hebrew name of God) rendered in Hebrew characters within a radiant glory, symbolizing divine providence. The scene illustrates the personal motto of Landgrave William V, expressing humble trust in God's will. The surrounding legend .IEHOVA.VOLENTE.HUMILIS.LEVABOR. is contained within beaded and rope-twist borders. |
