| Reverse description | Central device consisting of a crowned shield bearing the arms of the City of Riga — a crossed key and sword — enclosed within a rope-work circular frame. The denomination numerals '24' appear prominently flanking the crown above the shield, with the figure '3' placed at the base of the central device, together denoting the coin's value as 3 Polker equal to 1/24 Thaler. A Latin civic legend encircles the design along the outer border, separated by rosette stops, identifying this as a new coinage of the City of Riga. |
