| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a reproduction of the historic city seal of Berlin dated 1253, rendered in relief within a beaded circular border. The seal design shows a fortified city gate flanked by towers, with an eagle displayed in the foreground. The surrounding legend reads 'SIGILLVM·DE·BERLIN·BURGENSIUM', meaning 'Seal of the citizens of Berlin'. The image appears inverted relative to the obverse orientation due to coin alignment. |
