| Reverse description | The bishop's armorial achievement displayed on an ornate oval shield set within an elaborate rococo cartouche. A crosier and a sword are placed saltirewise behind the shield, symbolising ecclesiastical and temporal authority. A galero with tasselled and knotted cordons is suspended above the shield. A Latin legend in the field references the baronial titles and territorial holdings of the von Rost family, with the date 1747 divided across the lower field. |
