| Reverse description | The central field depicts a solemn procession of bishops carrying a reliquary box within a beaded circle, commemorating the translation of the relics of Saints Rupert and Virgilius on 24 September 1628. The figures are rendered in the detailed Baroque style typical of Salzburg commemorative coinage of this period. A Latin legend encircles the entire composition, identifying the saints and the date of the translatio ceremony. The scene captures the liturgical solemnity of the event that preceded the formal cathedral consecration. |
