Reverse description The reverse displays the original design of the 1549 Lübeck Thaler, featuring a large, boldly rendered Imperial double-headed eagle with spread wings, each head crowned, displayed centrally within a beaded inner circle. The eagle's breast bears a shield with the city arms of Lübeck. The surrounding legend, in Latin capitals separated by ornamental stops, reads MONETA NOVA LVBICENSIS 1549, distributed around the periphery within a beaded border. The overall design is characteristic of mid-sixteenth-century German municipal coinage, with fine feather detailing on the eagle's plumage.
