| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a standing female figure personifying Peace, shown in classical drapery facing left, holding an olive branch in her outstretched right hand. At her feet rests a lion's mask, symbolizing the subduing of conflict, and she stands upon a rope or cable ground line. The partial legend FAVENTE NUMINE appears in the field to the left and right of the figure, meaning 'with divine favour.' The lower exergue area bears the inscription PAX RYSWICENSIS, commemorating the Peace of Ryswick of 1697. The allegorical composition is rendered in a refined baroque engraving style consistent with late 17th-century German medallic art. |
