| Reverse description | Laureate and draped bust of Holy Roman Emperor Joseph II facing right, rendered in high relief in the Baroque portrait style. The emperor is depicted wearing a laurel wreath, with long flowing curled hair and armored drapery at the shoulder, the latter bearing an ornamental cartouche with the engraver's signature KÖRNLEIN. The encircling legend reads IOSEPHVS II · D · G · ROM · IMP · S · A ·, identifying him as Joseph II, by the Grace of God, Roman Emperor, Semper Augustus. The portrait is well-modelled with fine detail in the hair and armor, consistent with the work of engraver Johann Leonhard Körner. |
