| Reverse description | Central field features the perron of Liège in high relief — the iconic stepped column monument surmounted by a flaming pine cone finial, set upon a multi-tiered plinth, serving as the civic emblem of the city of Liège. The perron is depicted with clearly rendered architectural detail including the stacked masonry base and the characteristic flame atop the column. A circular beaded inner border frames the design, with the Latin monetary legend distributed around the periphery, separated by trefoil or star stops. The reverse composition is a heraldic and civic statement affirming the authority of the Prince-Bishop over the city of Liège. |
