| Reverse description | Imperial double-headed eagle displayed, with wings spread and both heads crowned, supporting a central shield on its breast. The divided date 17 – 18 appears above the eagle's crowns, separated by a small crown finial. The surrounding legend reads ·17 18· CAR·VI·D·G·R·I·S·A·G·H·H·&·BO·REX, referencing Holy Roman Emperor Charles VI as overlord. The eagle is rendered in the standard Imperial Baroque convention, with detailed feathering and spread talons. A beaded border frames the entire design. |
