| Reverse description | Saint George mounted on his destrier, depicted in dynamic action with lance raised and poised to deliver the killing blow upon the dragon prostrate beneath the horse's hooves. The composition follows the classical Benedetto Pistrucci tradition, with the armored knight and writhing dragon rendered in fine detail within an unadorned field. The engraver's initials AP appear in the field, identifying the reverse artist. The design occupies the full face of the coin with no exergual line or additional legend. |
