| Reverse description | Detailed view of the Neutorzwinger in Nuremberg, depicting the round tower and adjacent medieval buildings of the historic New Gate fortification complex. The legend NEUTORZWINGER arcs along the upper field, and the mint signature L CHR LAUER NUERNBERG appears in small lettering at the base of the design. The entire scene is framed by a rope-like border following the octagonal edge. |
| Reverse script | Latin |
| Reverse lettering | NEUTORZWINGER L CHR LAUER NUERNBERG (Translation: Neutor = `New Gate` which refers to an old gate that led to the road to Frankfurt and Zwinger = `Kennel` ... perhaps because the gate`s tower was once used as a prison.) |
