| Reverse description | The reverse presents a four-line Latin inscription in bold raised capital letters reading DVCATUS / REIPUBLICÆ / ARGENTO / RATENSIS, signifying the ducat of the Republic of Strasbourg, elegantly framed by two symmetrical laurel branches that sweep from a small ornamental device at the base to a fleur-de-lis finial at the apex. The inscription fills the field in a clean, authoritative arrangement characteristic of late seventeenth-century German civic coinage. A fine beaded border encircles the entire design, and the milled edge treatment is visible at the coin's rim. |
