Reverse description The denomination numeral VI appears at the top of the field, flanked by decorative rosette ornaments. Below it, three heraldic shields are arranged in a row: the Polish Eagle (Orzeł Biały) to the left, the crowned Vasa sheaf (Snopek) in the centre, and the Lithuanian Pursuer (Pogoń) to the right. Beneath the shields, a four-line Latin inscription reads GROS·ARGEN / SEX·D·REGNI / POLONI·, with the date 1601 in the lower field, the year digits flanking the Wschowa town arms (a crowned lion). Decorative stars and rosettes punctuate the field.
