Reverse description Standing full-length allegorical figure of Felicitas (Happiness or Prosperity) facing left, draped in classical robes, raising a radiant star or orb aloft in her right hand while holding a balance scale in her lowered left hand. A sword or sceptre rests against her left arm, referencing justice and authority. The figure stands on a ground line above a rectangular exergual cartouche bearing the inscription HOMAG: REGIOMONI / D 20 IVLII MDCCXL, commemorating the homage ceremony at Königsberg on 20 July 1740. The partial legend FELICITAS POPVLI (Happiness of the People) appears in the field to the left and right of the figure, with a beaded border encircling the entire reverse.
