| Reverse description | Standing female figure shown full-length in the field, wearing period dress and a pointed hat, holding a wine ladle or dipper in her raised right hand and a vessel in her left, positioned atop a small decorative base or step. The circular legend surrounding the figure reads NEC ERAT QVI COGERET AD BIBENDVM, a Biblical allusion (Esther 1:8) meaning 'there was none that compelled to drink,' a traditional Aachen civic device. No date appears on this type. The overall composition is enclosed within a plain inner circle and an outer beaded border. |
