| Reverse description | The reverse displays a large crowned double-headed imperial eagle with wings displayed, each head surmounted by a separate crown beneath a central imperial crown. The eagle bears on its breast an escutcheon with the Habsburg arms. The legend IOSEPHVS II. ROM. IMP. SEM. AVG. encircles the design along the rim, identifying Holy Roman Emperor Joseph II as the sovereign authority under whose patronage the city coin was issued. The overall engraving reflects the late Baroque style characteristic of southern German city coinage of the period. |
