Reverse description Standing nude female figure representing the Slavic goddess Siva, crowned with a wreath and holding a bunch of grapes in her raised right hand, positioned on an island amid surrounding lakes and waterways with small sailing vessels visible in the background. To her left, discarded armor, a helmet, a sword, and a spear lie upon the ground, symbolizing the peaceful surrender of Ratzeburg. The circumferential Latin legend appears along the upper border, with the inscription PAX RAZEBURG and the date 1693 in the lower exergue.
