Reverse description The reverse features a detailed portrait bust of Latvian folklorist Krisjanis Barons facing slightly left, rendered in fine cameo relief against a polished field on the right half. He is depicted as an elderly bearded figure wearing spectacles, with a long flowing white beard and dark attire, conveying scholarly gravitas. The left half of the field is frosted and dark, scattered with a multitude of small dots representing stars, mirroring the obverse design motif. The legend 'KAS VAR ZVAIGZNES SASKAITIT...' arcs along the upper border in Latin script, translating as 'Who can count the stars...', a reference to a Latvian folk song. Barons' facsimile signature 'Kr. Barons' appears in cursive script along the lower field.
