Obverse description Three shields of arms arranged above a panoramic view of the city of Nuremberg, with the date encoded as a chronogram within the exergual inscription. The heraldic composition is rendered in high relief with fine detail characteristic of early seventeenth-century German goldsmith work. The legend surrounds the design in a continuous arc, serving simultaneously as a devotional invocation and as the chronogram yielding the year 1631.
