| Reverse description | Central rectangular cartouche framed by elaborate Baroque strapwork and foliate scrollwork ornaments, enclosing a multi-line Latin inscription in five lines. The surrounding circular legend, reading from the base upward, presents the pious motto and dating. A beaded inner border separates the central design from the peripheral legend, with decorative floral stops punctuating the inscription. The overall design is characteristic of the Transylvanian Calvinist piety of the Rákóczi dynasty, emphasizing divine grace over human merit. |
