| Reverse description | A crowned heraldic shield occupies the centre of the field, rendered in relief. The circular Latin legend surrounding it reads CORONATUR QVIA PROTEXIT, meaning 'He is crowned because he protected', commemorating Sobieski's military defence of the Commonwealth as the basis for his elevation to the throne. |
