| Reverse description | A bold six-armed decorative cross in Gothic Revival style dominates the field, with each arm terminating in elaborate fleur-de-lis and foliate ornaments rendered in high relief. The Roman numeral III appears within a scalloped cartouche at the center of the cross, denoting the denomination. The fineness mark 1000 appears in the lower exergue, flanked by the base of the cross arms. The circular legend PRO PROSPERITATE MUNDI arcs along the upper periphery, while the word ARGENTEUS is inscribed in large letters along the lower border, separated from the legend by two small rosette stops. |

| Additional information |
No coin issued by the Federal Republic of Germany in 1963 matches this description in any standard reference. The X# prefix in Krause/Mishler cataloging denotes fantasy pieces and non-circulating locals — items struck privately or by fantasy mints with no official government authorization. "Aureus Magnus Kennedy" is not a recognized German state or federal title, and the denomination "Argenteus" has no basis in postwar German monetary history. This piece should be treated as a privately struck fantasy medallion, not an official issue.
