| Reverse description | Panoramic view of the city of Gdańsk (Danzig) as seen from the River Motława, with the skyline showing numerous church towers and civic buildings rendered in fine detail. Above the cityscape, a radiant All-Seeing Eye within a triangle emerges from clouds emitting bold sunrays, symbolising divine providence over the city. In the lower field, two winged figures (angels) flank the crowned arms of Gdańsk — a black cross on a white shield — with the date 1 6 5 6 divided on either side and the mint-master initials G R below. The circumferential Latin legend within a beaded border reads: 5 EX AURO SOLIDO CIVITAS GEDANENSIS FIERI FECIT. |
