Reverse description A detailed panoramic bird's-eye view of the city of Gdańsk (Danzig) rendered in remarkable cartographic relief, depicting the fortified city walls, towers, densely packed urban architecture, the Motława River with vessels at anchor, and the surrounding waterways and harbor. Above the cityscape, the civic arms of Gdańsk — featuring two crosses and a crown supported by lions — appear prominently at the top of the field. The city view is executed with exceptional engraving skill, characteristic of the finest early seventeenth-century Gdańsk medallic production. The Latin legend arcs along the upper rim within a beaded border.
