Reverse description Three heraldic shields arranged in a trefoil pattern around a central orb or globe surmounted by a cross, representing the joint coinage authority of the three Imperial cities. The upper-left shield displays the eagle of Deventer, the upper-right bears the city arms of Kampen, and the lower shield carries the arms of Zwolle. The shields are set against a multi-pointed star or decorative Gothic frame. A circular beaded border surrounds the composition, with the abbreviated mint legend distributed around the periphery identifying the three issuing cities.
