Reverse description Central shield displaying the civic arms of Opava (Troppau), divided per pale with vertical bars on the dexter and a stylized floral or foliate device on the sinister, consistent with the known heraldry of the city. The shield is presented in a plain field typical of late medieval Silesian municipal hellers. A partial uncial Latin legend is arranged in three segments around the shield, reading OPPAVIE (meaning 'of Opava'). The design is characteristically compact and bold, suited to the small flan of this fractional denomination.
