In the center is the Amsterdam City Magistrate. In her right hand she holds a laurel wreath and in her left hand the coat of arms of Amsterdam. Behind her the sun is shining. On the left are several wild animals, including a lion and an elephant, sitting near an open book with the letters NAM. In front of her are several attributes, a trumpet, a globe, a rolled up map, a lyre and a map compass. To the right is an ape near a trident, a cross and the caduceus.
