| Reverse description | Full-length frontal figure of Saint Maximilian, patron saint of Cambrai, depicted as a bishop clad in pontifical vestments including a mitre and cope, holding a patriarchal cross-staff in his left hand and an open book in his right. A small heraldic eagle device appears in the upper right field. The circular Latin legend SANCTVS MAXIMILIANVS surrounds the saintly figure, rendered with fine linear engraving typical of the hammered ecu coinage of the southern Low Countries in the third quarter of the sixteenth century. |
