| Reverse description | A fortified tower standing resolute amid storm-tossed waves, with wind personifications issuing from clouds on either side and blowing forcefully against its battlements, symbolizing steadfast resistance — an emblem of the Archbishop's determined rule. The date MDXCIII appears in Roman numerals interspersed within the circumferential Latin legend, reading clockwise from the upper right. The composition is bold and emblematic in the Mannerist tradition, filling the square klippe field with dramatic energy. |
