Reverse description A falconer dressed in traditional 16th-century costume is depicted in dynamic three-quarter stance, occupying the full field of the coin. The figure wears a broad-brimmed hat adorned with a feather plume and carries a hooded raptor on his left forearm while holding a lure in his right hand. To the left, a falcon is shown in full flight with wings spread, swooping toward the lure, referencing the historical falconry practiced at Burg Hohenwerfen. The engraver's signature 'H. WÄHNER' appears in the lower left field. The composition is rendered in a bold, sculptural relief style with no peripheral legend.
