| Reverse description | Central field displays the crowned arms of Gdańsk — the city's heraldic shield bearing two crosses beneath a third cross, surmounted by a royal crown — set within an elaborate cartouche of scrolling ornamental strapwork with foliate flourishes at the top. The composition is enclosed within an inner beaded circle, beyond which runs the circumferential Latin legend SOLIDVS.CIVI.GEDANENSIS, identifying the denomination as a schilling of the city of Gdańsk. The outer border repeats the rope or cable pattern seen on the obverse, consistent with the hammered coinage of the Gdańsk mint in the late 16th century. |
