Reverse description	A complex heraldic composition occupying the central field, featuring a shield arrangement with multiple quartered armorial bearings of the Habsburg territories, including recognizable elements of Austria, Styria, and associated lands, surmounted by a crowned helmet or orb. The surrounding circular legend in uncial Latin Gothic script reads GROSSUS ... A EIO V, identifying the denomination and the issuing authority. The date 1470 appears within the design or legend field. The workmanship reflects the late medieval Graz mint style, with bold relief and characteristic hammered irregularities on the flan.
