| Reverse description | Central device depicting a radiant sun with a human face in high relief, surrounded by alternating straight and wavy rays that fill the inner field, enclosed within a raised inner circle. The circumferential Latin legend 'DEUS · EST · NOBIS · SOL · ET · SCUTUM ·' (meaning 'God is to us both sun and shield') runs between the inner circle and the beaded outer border, the text appearing inverted relative to the obverse in coin alignment. The design is boldly executed in the Conder token tradition, combining religious sentiment with a visually striking solar motif. |
