| Reverse description | The crowned arms of the City of Gdańsk occupy the central field, depicting two silver crosses on a red shield topped by a royal crown, supported by two lions rampant flanking the shield, all rendered in the heraldic style characteristic of Gdańsk municipal coinage. The composition is enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The surrounding Latin legend reads MONETA AVREA CIVITATIS GEDANENSIS 1583, identifying this as a gold coin of the city of Gdańsk, with the date of issue incorporated into the legend. The overall design reflects the civic pride and commercial importance of Gdańsk as a major Baltic trading center. |
