| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central device featuring the arms of the City of Reval — a shield bearing three walking lions passant, surmounted by an elaborate crown — set within a decorative cartouche with ornamental scrollwork. The heraldic composition is bold and typical of Baltic municipal coinage of the early seventeenth century. A circular Latin legend surrounds the central device, reading MONETA · NOVA · CIVI · TAT : REVAL : IIII · M : SV, identifying this as a new coin of the city of Reval with a denomination of 4 Mark of Sweden. The overall design fills the flan evenly, with the legend closely framing the central shield and crown motif. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Reval — modern Tallinn — was a prosperous Hanseatic city under Swedish rule when this piece was struck, and its municipal mint operated with unusual autonomy for a city of its size. The "Weight of 12 Mark" designation reflects the Hamburg mark standard adopted for local heavy coinage, a commercial convention rather than a Swedish imperial one. Gustaf II Adolf was actively fighting on multiple fronts during this period, and Reval's position as a Baltic trading hub made its silver output strategically important for financing campaigns.
The KM#5.3 designation distinguishes this among several die varieties within the 1623 issue.
