Reverse description The reverse reproduces an old engraving-style panoramic view of Saarburg inscribed 'Sarburg. Trierisch', with a wide townscape of church spires and castle towers set against a hilly backdrop and a river in the foreground labelled 'SAR' and 'FL'. Two classical male figures in Roman-style dress stand in the foreground flanking a bird on the ground, serving as allegorical attendants to the cityscape. Latin and early German-language verses in italic script fill the lower portion, with the serial-number code 'D66' in the upper right corner and the motto 'Laß dich dine Nachbaurn loben.' across the top.
Reverse lettering Laß dich dine Nachbaurn loben.
D66
Sarburg. Trierisch
SAR FL
Fac facienda, virum tua te vicinia laudet:
Propria laus sordet, laus aliena valet.
Maß du thun solt, thu williglich, vnd laß dein Nachbaurn loben dich:
Dann eigen Lob das stinckt gar sehr, frembt Lob besteht vnd gilt viel mehr.
