| Obverse lettering | D. G. CASPARVS. PRINCEPS. ET. ABBAS. CORBEIENSIS. |
| Reverse description | Full-length standing figure of St. Vitus, patron saint of Corvey Abbey, depicted frontally in the field, holding a palm branch in one hand and a book in the other, with a bird at his side; the denomination 24 flanks the figure to the left and M.G.R. to the right. The exergue bears the inscription S. VITVS. P., identifying the saint. The circumferential legend invokes a liturgical petition for peace, rendered in classical Roman lettering consistent with mid-eighteenth-century German ecclesiastical coin design. |
