Reverse description A large bold fraction '1/3' dominates the central field, rendered in prominent relief to indicate the coin's denomination as one-third of a Thaler. The surrounding legend, beginning at upper right and continuing around the coin, reads NACH DEM LEIPZIGER FVS, referencing the Leipzig coinage standard, with the date 1761 appearing at the upper left separated by a small floral ornament. The legend is punctuated by raised dots between words, and the overall design is clean and functional in the utilitarian tradition of German subsidiary coinage.
