The reverse inscription confirms an official municipal award, issued “by the city of Coesfeld”, most likely in connection with agricultural or poultry exhibitions. Such medals were commonly awarded between circa 1890 and 1920, during a period of strong development in organized livestock breeding and rural competitions in Germany.
