| Reverse description | At center, a stylized depiction of a medieval Viking or Hanseatic trading vessel is rendered in relief against a smooth field, with a single mast and furled sail visible. Above the ship, a pair of crossed keys — Riga's heraldic emblem — is shown, echoing the obverse motif and reinforcing the city's mercantile and ecclesiastical heritage. The entire composition is set within an irregular scalloped outline referencing historic coin design. Along the lower rim, the inscription 'RĪGA-800' is struck in bold capital letters, commemorating the 800th anniversary of the founding of the city. |
