| Reverse description | Central field displays the crowned arms of the City of Elbing — an eagle displayed within an ornate shield set against a plain background — encircled by a linear border. The surrounding legend reads GROS · VN · CIVI · ELBING with the date 1629 incorporated into the legend, all in Latin characters typical of early seventeenth-century municipal coinage. The composition is compact and well-centered relative to the small module of the coin. |
