| Reverse description | The large numeral '5' dominates the central field, surmounted by an imperial crown with elaborate detailing. The legend SCHEIDE MÜNZE, meaning 'token coin' or 'small change', is divided across the upper field flanking the crown. The year of issue appears below the numeral, with the mint mark 'A' (Vienna) positioned beneath the date within a wreath of two sprigs of laurel or olive tied at the base. A beaded border encircles the entire reverse. |
