| Reverse description | The reverse features a central figure of a fool (Narr) in jester's costume, shown full-length and advancing, holding a jester's bauble or rattle aloft in his raised right hand and draped in a billowing cloak, standing atop a spread eagle. The figure is set within a plain inner circle against a broad, unadorned field. A continuous circumferential legend in German surrounds the design, incorporating the date ANNO 1624, and reading WAS IHR SVCHT DAS FINDT IHR ANNO. 1624 O IHR NARREN IN ALLER WEIS. The lettering is rendered in the characteristic early seventeenth-century Germanic style, with the moralistic inscription completing the thematic pairing with the obverse regarding mankind's vain pursuit of wealth. |
