| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field bearing the crowned arms of Elbing — a shield surmounted by a royal crown, displaying the city's heraldic device featuring a cross and crescent elements characteristic of Elbing municipal coinage — enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The surrounding Latin legend SOLIDVS PRVSSIAE encircles the design, identifying the denomination and territory of issue. The date 1657 appears in the lower portion of the legend, consistent with other Prussian solidus issues of the Swedish occupation period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Elbing had been a Hanseatic trading city under Polish suzerainty for over two centuries when Swedish forces occupied it during the First Northern War. Charles X Gustav effectively held the city as leverage, and local coinage continued under occupation authority — a pragmatic arrangement that kept commerce moving while the broader conflict ground on. The city retained nominal minting rights, but the issues of 1657 reflect Swedish military administration rather than the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth that had long claimed sovereignty over Prussian Royal towns.
