| Reverse description | Two large sailing vessels depicted on choppy seas, sailing to the left toward a rocky coastline with a fortified tower or castle in the background; stormy clouds rendered in relief above. The scene alludes to the destructive storm of December 1593. The circumferential legend runs around the outer border within a beaded rim. |
