Reverse description Multicolour pictorial vignette set within an oval frame at centre, illustrating a scene of miners and townspeople commemorating the first ore discovery at Schwaz in 1420, rendered in a historicist illustrative style with figures in period costume. The numeral '60' appears in large bold type within oval cartouches at upper left and upper right. Flanking the central vignette are two heraldic shields: the Tyrolean eagle arms to the left and the Schwaz mining arms (crossed hammers) to the right. The town name 'Schwaz' and regional designation 'in Tirol' are inscribed in Gothic script across the lower margin, with a ribbon cartouche at the base of the vignette bearing the caption referencing the first ore finds of 1420.
